Antigonea Archaeological Park, Archaeological site in Qendër Libohovë, Albania.

The excavation site reveals ancient streets, public spaces, and fortification walls that showcase the urban layout of a Hellenistic settlement.

King Pyrrhus of Epirus established this city in the third century BC and named it after his wife Antigone, creating a strategic stronghold.

The remains of temples, residential buildings, and a theater provide evidence of daily activities and social organization in ancient communities.

Visitors can access the park Tuesday through Sunday between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM, with an entrance fee of 300 leke during tourist season.

Located 16 kilometers from Gjirokastra, the site maintains its original structural elements without modern alterations or reconstructions.
