Frashër Brothers Museum & Tekke
Muzeu i Vëllezërve Frashëri
Hometown of the Frashëri brothers, leaders of Albania’s National Awakening movement, with a memorial museum and a Bektashi tekke.
Frashër village lies in the mountains about 30 km northeast of Përmet and is the birthplace of the Frashëri brothers, including the poet Naim Frashëri. The village memorial museum tells the story of Albania’s national awakening in the 19th century, and next to it is the long-established Bektashi Sufi tekke. The mountain road winds, and the village can be combined with the Hotova fir forest in a half-day drive. Museum opening hours are irregular.
