Isola Vicentina
Isola Vicentina is a small town and ''comune'' in the Italy, Italian province of Vicenza in the Veneto region. Its population is around 9,319. History Numerous archeological finds from various epochs bear witness to the ancient past of Isola Vicentina. These finds include pottery dating back to the Iron Age, a column with an inscription in a Venetic, Venetian language, a Ancient Rome, Roman tombstone, and several Lombards, Lombardic tombs.

It is one of the Three Cities in the Grand Harbour area, the other two being Cospicua and Vittoriosa, and has a population of approximately 2,720 people. The city's title Città Invicta was given because it managed to resist the Ottoman invasion at the Great Siege of Malta in 1565.
