Palazzo Nasciaro is still known among the locals as the "old police station".
The Local Council of Naxxar and the local residents refer to the building as the old police station as it still was a police station at the end of the twentieth century, before it was abandoned for more than twenty years.
Despite this gives it recent notability within the Police Force of Malta, and the Local community in general, further notability is for the fact that it served as a police headquarters of a large region in the north of Malta during the British and the beginning of the force.
The traditional Maltese tinber balcony, that stood for two centuries on the façade together with the baroque-designed balcony, had been removed when the building was a police station.
The lower half of the balcony, made of Maltese limestone, is retained.
This half has intricate stone carvings and gives an interesting character to the building.
The carvings start from the main archway entrance, where the door stands, and goes up to the balcony.
This gives the lower and upper floor continuous harmony in terms of architecture.
