Durres Historic Tour
Overview of the tour in Durres
Welcome to Durrës! Durres is the most ancient city in Albania. The city has been continuously populated for at least 3000 years. Officially founded in 7th Century BC, it was known as Epidamnos and Dyrrachium in Antiquity, the Middle Ages, and the Early Modern Era.
