About Gjirokastër
Gjirokastër is a stone town of Ottoman tower houses climbing a steep hillside beneath a fortress, in the Drino valley of southern Albania.
Grey stone houses with heavy stone-slab roofs climb the slope below Gjirokastër's hilltop castle, which holds a museum of weapons and looks out over the Drino valley. The old town, listed by UNESCO together with Berat, grew up in Ottoman times around a bazaar. Tall fortified family homes such as the Zekate House, built in the early nineteenth century, show how well-off households once lived.
