Tour Plan
There we will explore Skanderbeg’s and the Ethnographic Museums. At the castle of Kruja which was the epicenter of the legendary Albanian resistance to the Ottomans, led by national hero Skanderbeg in the 15th century, we’ll see a copy of the helmet and the sword of Scanderbeg in the main hall, the flags, and stems of important families of that time who supported the national hero.In the meantime, the National Ethnographic Museum is located in an old building of the Toptani family, built in 1764 in the courtyard of the medieval castle, in front of the National Museum of Scanderbeg. The walls of the museum have 250 years original morals, ceilings carved in wood, very rare furnishings, old-style rugs, and traditional costumes. Inside the house is a steamy Turkish bath, one of the only left in Albania. The museum has also 1,200 original objects which are a living proof of old Albanians’ lifestyle and traditions, mostly in XVIII-XIX centuries.
