This castle is near Tirana and you can enjoy there even a meal or a coffee. If you want you can make a picnic in the large area. The fortress is nice and the strange thing is that there is a mosque inside the castle

Except the history , it offers a very panoramic view of the surrounding places. A place where you can go at any time of the day and have a good time.

Not far from Tirana is this cute castle from where you can have great views on the surrounding area. The castle was built in the 14 th century and belonged to the family of Topiaj.

Just about a 30 minute drive out of Tirana, Preza Castle is high enough to enjoy views toward Kruje, Shkodra, and even the Adriatic Sea. Go on a clear day, walk around the expansive yard and enjoy a drink or bite to eat at the cafe located inside the castle.

The visit to the Scanderbeg Castle in Kruja should continue with a visit to the one in Preza. From a military point of view you will get a glimpse of the strategy genius our national hero was. Together with the castle in Petrela the three of them form a formidable system of defense which Gjergj Kastrioti Skenderbeu used to deterr, prevent, and sabotage the numerous ottoman forces.

It's located not to far away from Tirana city. The view from the top is very beautiful, from out there you can see Tirana city, a mountain forehead in which Kruja city is located. There is a bar inside the little castle, when you can take some beverages.

Not much to the castle, but is interesting. I wandered in, no one else there. View is tremendous over Rinas and Tirana and across to Kruje. Restaurant below the castle is excellent. Negotiate a rate with taxi driver in Tirana to take you out and wait.

A unique place. There you can capture a panoramic view from Lezha town, to Kruja and it's mountain, Tirana airport, etc. It is a very good place to relax with your children. The problem is the restaurant of the castle which is of very bad quality!

Hi all, how much does it cost to hire a taxi from city centre to the castle? And are there any taxis near the taxi for the return journey back to Tirana? Thank you :)

Hello. Could someone possibly tell me if there is an admission fee or ticket cost to visit Preza Castle? What days and hours is it open? Also does anyone know average pricing for the restaurant inside? Thank you for your time and help in this matter.
Sincerely,

Is it more convenient to get to Preza Castle from Tirana city center or from Tirana airport? How do I get there using public transportation?
Written June 18, 2016
you can go directly from airport, but are you sure you don't want to settle down first at your hotel with your luggage?
you can get a taxi from airport and tell the destination to Preza castle, it depends by your plans how long you are going to stay.
you can call speed taxi, they are very professional and from aiport they aply a fixed rate something about 15 euros to Tirana. or you ask before by phone the rates from Tirana to Preza Castle. its better if the taxi wait for you because there is a bit you will do by walk.
