Overview

Discover one of the most beautiful cities in Albania. Kruja provides visitors with great views of the majestic local landscape and a rich collection of historical sites. Kruja is home to the museum of our national hero Skanderbeg, placed within his castle and it is the perfect place in Albania to learn about our national hero Gjergj Kastrioti Skanderbeg and Albanian history. Scanderbeg protected the Ottoman army and three sultans for 25 years. He was considered by the Pope as an Athleta Cristi because he had halted the westward expansion of the Ottoman Empire. Visit the Ethnographic Museum, where you will learn about the traditions and lifestyles of Albanian people at those times. The tour will proceed with a visit to the Castle, of the panoramic view and landscape, and imagine how they fought with the Ottomans for 25 years protecting their castle and city You will also take a nice walk in the old bazaar from the 15-16 century to explore a world of arts and crafts of the Albanians.
