Mausoleum of Skanderbeg, the national hero of Albania, who died in Lezhë in 1468. The place was both a church and a mosque at different points in history. As of December 2016, it was not possible to go inside the mausoleum, but one can take a peek through the doors and walk all around.
Skanderbeg National Memorial is a commemorative site dedicated to Skanderbeg, built in 1981 on the ruins of the Selimiye Mosque in Lezhë.
