Banesa e Hajdar Sejdinit (House of Hajdar Sejdin)
Ethnographic Museum
Elbasan, Albania
Elbasan is an important city and muncipality, in central Albania. The city occupied since Roman times was expanded in the 15th century and flourished as a cultural center during Ottoman times and remained so until the town suffered much damage during World War II. Ancient walls of the fortress and several churches, mosques and Ottoman style dwellings survive. The House of Hajdar Sejdin serves as the ethnographic museum with a few rooms preserved and outfitted with period furnishings.
