Berat

Albania - Essential Albania

Berat is a historically rich city that has been standing for over 2,400 years. It is highly regarded for its Albanian architecture and is protected by UNESCO.

Located 120 km from Tirana, Berat is a fusion of Eastern and Western cultures, traditions, costumes, and perspectives. The city is a treasure trove of Albanian culture and history, showcasing the nation’s commitment to religious harmony. Berat has its origins in the 6th-5th century B.C. as an Illyrian settlement. Later, in the 3rd century B.C., it became a castle city known as Antipatrea. The castle thrived, particularly under the feudal dominion of the Muzakaj family, and within its walls, churches with valuable frescoes, icons, and a calligraphy school were established. It is remarkable that people still reside within the castle walls to this day.
