It was built by Marquis Emanuel Testaferrata Bonici Ghaxaq (Asciak) as a country residence.[3] HistoryVilla Bonici is a large building that was built in the 19th century, some time before 1872, as a countryside house by aristocrat Marquis Baron Emanuele Testaferrata Bonici Ghaxaq (Asciak).[3][4] The villa has passed to his next generations of his family: first to Lino Testaferrata Bonici, then to Agnes Gera de Petri, and then to Alfred Gera de Petri.[2] Apart from the building of the villa the property has a separate farmhouse and the terraced gardens for what it is well known, making it unique in the overdeveloped areas of Gzira[5] and Sliema.[6] Originally the gardens were surrounded by a wall made of several arches. The garden used to extend to the seaside, but this side was developed with modern buildings.[7] ModernThe villa had previously served as one of the few open air cinema theatres in Malta.[1][8] It also served as a school until 1969[9] and became an educational institute again as part of the St. Louis School.[8] Today Villa Bonici is in a dilapidated state.[8] It is surrounded by modern building development and had become an issue of development itself by its owners as being a high potential economic asset.[3][10] Maltese heritageThe historic parts of Villa Bonici were scheduled as a Grade 2 by the Malta Environment and Planning Authority (MEPA) in 2010.[3] GardenThe villa has one baroque archway designed for its large gardens. Other arches at the waterfront were demolished to build up the open air cinema. The cinema was converted into a commercial outlet. This building was eventually demolished to make way for a block of apartments. Most of the gardens are still intact but are subject to development. See also
