What To Expect

Gjirokaster Castle

Gjirokastra Castle is one of the largest and most well-preserved castles in Albania. Perched on a hilltop overlooking the old town of Gjirokastra, it offers panoramic views of the Drino Valley. With origins dating back to the 12th century, the castle has served as a fortress, a prison, and now as a historical museum. Visitors can explore its stone walls, old weaponry, and even see a U.S. military aircraft from the Cold War era displayed within its grounds.
