KRUJA, ALBANIA
From Wikipedia: "Kruja
is best known as the hometown of Albania's national hero, Skanderbeg,
from where the Ottomans were successfully resisted for nearly 30 years
until 1468.
The castle of Kruje was defended in 4 sieges conducted by the Ottoman forces.
The city's name comes from the Albanian word for spring, krua.
Kruja is also a tourist attraction in
a spectacular mountainside location. Some of the main points of
interest include the restored castle and citadel, the Skanderbeg museum
located inside the castle, and the old restored bazaar. The citadel
includes a restored house from the Ottoman epoch which serves as the
Ethnographic Museum."
