After the siege, Maltese military engineer Girolamo Cassar created a plan by which the size of the Mdine would be reduced by half and converted to the fortress, but this was never carried out due to protests by city nobles.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mrm-style.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Letters-from-Malta-Mdina-silence-speaks-more-than-words-Mr.M-by-Marko-Tadic5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4034 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/mrm-style.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Letters-from-Malta-Mdina-silence-speaks-more-than-words-Mr.M-by-Marko-Tadic5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2500\" height=\"1668\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mrm-style.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Letters-from-Malta-Mdina-silence-speaks-more-than-words-Mr.M-by-Marko-Tadic5.jpg 2500w, https:\/\/mrm-style.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Letters-from-Malta-Mdina-silence-speaks-more-than-words-Mr.M-by-Marko-Tadic5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mrm-style.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Letters-from-Malta-Mdina-silence-speaks-more-than-words-Mr.M-by-Marko-Tadic5-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mrm-style.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Letters-from-Malta-Mdina-silence-speaks-more-than-words-Mr.M-by-Marko-Tadic5-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mrm-style.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Letters-from-Malta-Mdina-silence-speaks-more-than-words-Mr.M-by-Marko-Tadic5-1440x961.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/mrm-style.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Letters-from-Malta-Mdina-silence-speaks-more-than-words-Mr.M-by-Marko-Tadic5-800x534.jpg 800w, https:\/\/mrm-style.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Letters-from-Malta-Mdina-silence-speaks-more-than-words-Mr.M-by-Marko-Tadic5-550x367.jpg 550w, https:\/\/mrm-style.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Letters-from-Malta-Mdina-silence-speaks-more-than-words-Mr.M-by-Marko-Tadic5-1920x1281.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/mrm-style.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Letters-from-Malta-Mdina-silence-speaks-more-than-words-Mr.M-by-Marko-Tadic5-1619x1080.jpg 1619w, https:\/\/mrm-style.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Letters-from-Malta-Mdina-silence-speaks-more-than-words-Mr.M-by-Marko-Tadic5-899x600.jpg 899w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2500px) 100vw, 2500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>In June 1798, Mdina was occupied by the French forces without much resistance during the French occupation in Malta.
