    Petrelë Castle

    PetrelëAlbania6th century–15th century

    Perched on a rocky crag south of Tirana, Petrelë Castle is a triangular medieval watchtower with roots stretching back to Byzantine Emperor Justinian I. Controlled in the 15th century by Skanderbeg's sister, Mamica Kastrioti, it served as a signal beacon in Albania's defense against the Ottomans. Its ancient stone walls are associated with phantom signaling fires, medieval watchmen, and whispers on the wind.
