Kruja
Kruja
Just 32km away from Tirana and very close to Tirana International Airport. This historic city offers an open vista to an amazing panoramic view.
The name and the importance of the city are closely related to the 25 years of activity of the national hero, Skanderbeg, who in the fifteenth century made Kruja a bastion of uncompromising resistance against the Ottoman. The Skanderbeg Museum is situated inside the castle walls, which date back to the fifth and sixth centuries A.D.
