SALOMON MUSEUM
The only museum devoted to the history of Albania's Jews. Explanatory panels and reproductions of old photos.
This small private museum (Muzeu Solomoni) is the only Jewish museum in Albania. Founded in 2018 by an Orthodox Christian from Berat, Simon Vrusho (1944-2019), it is now managed by the foundation of the French-Albanian businessman Gasmen Toska (born 1961). It houses panels tracing the history of Judaism in Albania, in particular the singular paths of Albanian and foreign Jews saved by Albanians of all faiths during the German occupation. The last Jewish inhabitants of Berat left to settle in Israel in the 1990s.
