TIRANA, Oct 4 /ATA/ – Another cultural heritage site damaged by the devastating earthquake that hit Albania in November 2019 has been restored. 

The Hammam of Durrës reopened its doors on Friday, offering visitors a chance to experience the rich history and cultural diversity of Albania. 

Located near to the iconic Venetian Tower, the Hammam is one of the 15 cultural heritage sites which have been fully renovated through the EU4Culture programme, while work ongoing at 8 additional sites. 

The EU Ambassador to Albania, Silvio Gonzato, who attended the inauguration ceremony, said that the site is as a testament to the country’s religious, social and culture diversity. 

“Albania is an excellent example of this coexistence between people with different traditions. This is also what the EU stands for, people with diverse cultures and traditions living together in harmony,” EU Ambassador stated.
