Tanners' Bridge

Small historic bridge in Tirana city centre. Worth a look as we were in the area anyway.

The Tanners' Bridge is an 18th-century Ottoman period stone footbridge located in Tirana, Albania. The area is so crowded with many shops, barber, noter and others. Few minutes to take photos near the historical bridge is enough. In the 1990s, the bridge was restored for use by pedestrians.

It is a bridge from the Ottoman period that is still standing and actively used by the people in their daily life. However, it should be taken care of as soon as possible, it is insufficient in terms of maintenance. Its surroundings are very dirty. The surroundings of such a work should not be so dirty and neglected.

Wonderful old bridge from the Ottoman era. Well worth a walk over and around. Surprising that they let you walk over such a precious monument that has no safety barriers!

Cool place in the middle of town near the square. Beware don't cross if its wet...

Nice place to see and cross. Nice at night, looks like a painting 😍

This ancient bridge is a marvel of historical architecture, standing the test of time with its timeless beauty and craftsmanship. Walking across its weathered stones, you can almost feel the centuries of history that have unfolded here. The surrounding scenery adds to the charm, making it a picturesque spot for photos and contemplation. The bridge’s enduring presence serves as a reminder of the engineering ingenuity of the past. It’s a must-see for history enthusiasts and anyone appreciating the fusion of nature and heritage. Highly recommended!

Beautiful old piece of architectural art built in centuries 17-18 in Tirana. Old stone bridges like this testify the ancient traditions of Albania in construction field. They do confirm the great work of masters. It stands nearby the "Xhamia e Tabakëve" I think people should be more careful and to not throw trashes like plastic bags or food packings there and to look carefully after the city.
