Apollonia Archaeological Park

Start your journey with a guided tour of the ancient city of Apollonia, one of the most important archaeological sites in Albania, nestled on a picturesque hill overlooking the Fier plain. Founded in the 6th century BC by Greek colonists, Apollonia flourished as a major center of culture and learning during the Roman era. Your expert guide will bring the ruins to life as you explore the remains of temples, a grand theatre, the ancient agora, and the impressive stoa. Walk the same cobbled paths once traveled by Julius Caesar’s soldiers, and learn how this city became a strategic hub during the Roman civil wars. Admire the beauty of the restored Byzantine church and monastery of Saint Mary, which now houses a small museum with fascinating artifacts. Surrounded by olive groves and sweeping views, Apollonia offers not just a step back in time—but a peaceful escape into Albania’s classical heritage.
