Description: Limestone block bearing the coat of arms of Guglielmo Murina, Governor of Malta in 1372, originating from a medieval building in Mdina, possibly the Castellu di la Chitati. After the building was demolished, the stone was reused during modifications at D'Homedes Bastion in the 1720s. It was rediscovered in 2012 during the restoration of the bastion, and it is now exhibited at the Fortifications Interpretation Centre in Valletta.
