[7][8] Tal-Wejter Tower was commissioned by Grand Master Ramon Perellos y Roccaful, and it was built in the early 18th century.

The tower stood on the road leading from San Ġwann and St. Julian's to Birkirkara.

The project took place on the recommendations by Captain Foulet and Commander D'Argens, who were French knights of the Order of St.

[10] Part of the tower was illegally demolished in 1968, but it was later rebuilt by the Società Dun Filippu Borgia.

[12] It was scheduled as a Grade 2 national monument by the Malta Environment and Planning Authority in 2012.
