These 13 towers adorn the official coat of arms and flag of Pembroke, reflecting the town's military heritage.

Fort Pembroke was built between 1875 and 1878 to safeguard the seaward approach towards the Grand Harbour situated approximately 6 km to the east, as well as to defend the right flank of the Victoria Lines.

Between 1897 and 1899, Pembroke Battery was built nearby to serve the same purposes but housing newer guns with a longer range, protected by reinforced concrete emplacements.

Only one gun emplacement survives today, located between Burma Road and Dun Luigi Rigord Street.

The Pembroke Military Cemetery marks the repose of 593 casualties, including 315 from World War II.

In 1915, during World War I, when Malta was an important hospital base for the British and Commonwealth troops in the Mediterranean Sea, the army built what was then called St. Andrew's Church Room.

In 1932, plans for an extension to the Church Room were drawn up and funds were raised from civilians and supplemented by generous contributions from soldiers of both battalions quartered in Pembroke barracks.

In 1915, the Australian Branch of the British Red Cross Society collected funds for the building of Australia Hall, a recreation centre and theatre, to stand as a monument to the wounded ANZAC troops that were nursed in Malta.

Unfortunately, the ceiling of trusses and sheeting was gutted by fire in December 1998 but its sturdy four walls still remain standing and are pending a restoration project.

On 4 July 1983, the Maltese Parliament approved a motion to commence issuing plots of land for sale/lease for the purpose of building residential houses.

Endangered plants are still found in the area, the most important of these is the thorny salad-burnet (Maltese: Tursin il-għawl xewwieki).

The plant was purposely placed on the Pembroke coast due to the cleanliness of the pristine sea water in the area, free from any effluent or any agricultural run-off [citation needed].

A geological feature unique in the Maltese archipelago is the large natural cavern at the Ħarq Ħammiem valley which separates Pembroke from St. Julian's.

An underwater survey commissioned by the Maltese government in 2001 discovered the lake's depths were even deeper than previously assumed.

This unique feature is not well known as access to the cavern is blocked by a private enterprise and this irregular claim does not seem to be challenged by the authorities [citation needed].
