Overview

The medieval hero Gjergj Kastrioti called “Scanderbeg” is considered not only by Albanians as a symbol of resistance and savior but also by ottomans who believed that a supernatural force dwelt in him. The museum carrying his name is a piece of history brought in time. The walk in the Old Bazaar full of old shops that sell traditional handmade items will keep you back in time as if the years didn’t pass by.
