Tirana's Must-See Sights

Tirana’s city center is defined by Skanderbeg Square, a vast pedestrian space housing the 19th-century Clock Tower and the Skanderbeg Monument. The city’s complex history is visible through Ottoman-era sites like the Kapllan Pasha Tomb and poignant reminders of the communist period, including preserved bunkers and a segment of the Berlin Wall. Further south, Mother Teresa Square showcases Italian rationalist architecture, while various monuments commemorate international figures and national activists who shaped Albania’s path to independence.
