The Military Living Museum just outside of Tirana in Dobresh.

5.00The Military Living Museum just outside of Tirana in Dobresh. Free entry, no ID required. I think it's free as it has recently moved here from the city centre due to an expansion and they want more people to visit. Still lots of space to add collections to. Upon entry at reception you should meet Filip (I think he is a Sargant in the Albanian army) who runs the museum. Very warm and friendly and full of knowledge. I would return here, even if they charged and entry fee. Toilets are inside.
Lots to see

5.00I had a private tour with the tour guide. I got picked up and dropped off at the hotel. My recommendation is do the outside part first. The outside has all the vehicles and equipment. The signs are in English and Albanian. Once you are done the outside you then go into the museum. I did not see any restrooms so plan accordingly. This was very interesting.
