In Korça on Saturday, the EU Delegation ended its Europe Week Journey through Albania’s Cultural and Natural Wonders. During seven days, and through more than 25 events, we have explored how Albania is an essential part of Europe’s rich culture and history.

Cultural Heritage: a chance for Albania

The event included opening remarks by EU Ambassador Romana Vlahutin and Minister of Culture Mirela Kumbaro, followed by presentations and discussions with representatives of civil society organisations, municipality and international organisations. At the end, the ceremony concluded with handing out of award prizes for the winners of the Bed and Breakfast architectural competition organised by the EU Delegation.
