Churches & Chapels

TIME : 2016/2/18 16:05:51

Ask at the Onufri Museum if you can see the other churches and tiny chapels in Kala, including St Theodore (Shën Todher), close to the citadel gates; the substantial and picturesque Church of the Holy Trinity (Kisha Shën Triades), below the upper fortress; and the little chapels of St Mary Blachernae (Shën Mëri Vllaherna) and St Nicholas (Shënkolli). Some of the churches date back to the 13th century. Also keep an eye out for the Red Mosque , by the southern Kala walls, which was the first in Berat and dates back to the 15th century.
