Economy, Culture, and Innovation Minister Blendi Gonxhja shared images from the Kruja Ethnographic Museum, highlighting a unique visitor experience.

The museum showcases Albanian household life and customs over centuries. Its architecture, inspired by Albanian and Ottoman styles, is unique in the Balkans. The three-story “çardak”-style building, a first-category cultural monument, displays traditional crafts and daily life from over 300 years ago.

Visitors can explore historic systems for self-sufficiency and the organization of family spaces by social and gender roles.

The EU-funded restoration through the EU4Culture program enhanced the museum as a cultural highlight, complementing a tour from the market to Kruja Castle and the Gjergj Kastrioti Museum.
