Kruja fortress is best known in the fifteenth century when our national hero Gjergj Kastriot Skanderbeg had his headquarters in the years of resistance to the Ottoman conquest. It has an elliptical shape and a circumference of 804 m, occupies a surface of 2.5 ha of land, and is built on a rocky hill. Archaeological excavations of 1978 prove that the hill has been inhabited since the 3rd century BC while the fortress was built around V-VI century AD.
