A very lively square and arguably one of the most beautiful castle complexes in all of Albania. Highly recommended. A stroll along the equally picturesque street leading to the hotel, past the souvenir stalls, is also worthwhile.

Originally a Byzantine monastery complex (around 1418), severely damaged in an earthquake in 1852, partially renovated recently (2022). It also serves as a place of pilgrimage, especially annually on June 13th (Feast of St. Anthony). Late Romanesque/Gothic architecture, approximately 13.5 x 6 meters in size, and fairly well preserved. The path leading there is partly impassable or difficult to access (depending on the season). Frescoes and wall paintings have been preserved inside: for example, a double-headed eagle (associated with the Kastrioti family coat of arms) and a horsewoman figure, interpreted as Mamica Kastrioti (sister of the national hero Skënderbeu). Enjoy your visit!

Church at Cape Rodon near the beach

MUSTAFA MERLIKA - KRUJA Signer of the Declaration of Independence for Kruja. Statesman, historian, linguist, and publicist.

Narrow steep and winding at first but broadens into steps and plenty of viewing points

Wonderful views -we hiked up and walked back along the quiet winding road - highly recommend the museum for down time

The old bazaar has been wonderfully restored. A success despite its touristic character.

You have to walk through the entire old bazaar. Then you will see the bust. From there you also have a good view of the entire castle.
