National History Museum

"Established in 1981, the museum houses an extensive collection of artifacts, documents, and exhibits spanning Albania's rich history from ancient times to the present day, with more that 7500 exposed items. From archaeological treasures dating back thousands of years to relics from the communist era, the museum offers a comprehensive overview of Albania's past, providing valuable insights into its societal, political, and cultural evolution. Designed by renowned Albanian architect Enver Hoxha (no relation to the communist leader), the National Historical Museum stands as a testament to the nation's commitment to preserving its heritage and educating future generations. Its imposing facade, adorned with socialist realist reliefs, is a striking architectural landmark in Tirana."

"If you are a huge history fan, I believe you would enjoy this place a lot. Just make sure to plan your visit during the opening hours, unfortunately, when I came, it was already closed."
