Casino Notabile

The Casino Notabile, formerly also known as Point de Vue, is a former clubhouse located at Saqqajja Hill, outside the walls of Mdina, Malta.

In 1886, a group of noblemen from Mdina commissioned the British architect Webster Paulson to design a clubhouse which was to be built on Saqqajja Hill.

[4][5] Due to its location on the crest of a plateau, overlooking an unobstructed view, it was also known as Point de Vue.

[3] Paulson was probably influenced by the works of French Beaux-Arts architects, and the building's design reflects the architecture of the Belle Époque era found in Paris and Nice.

[11] The Casino is a small structure consisting of three rooms, along with an open terrace and a front porch,[9] constructed out of local limestone.
