MUSÉE ETHNOGRAPHIQUE D'ELBASAN
Ethnographic collections and a Roman stele bearing the town's first name in an Ottoman villa.
Opened in 1986, this municipal museum (Muzeu Etnografik) is housed in the Sejdini house, an 18th-century single-storey bourgeois villa. On display are antique furniture, traditional costumes, handicrafts and more. The museum also features the funerary stele of a Roman soldier named Marcus Sabitis, who died in the 2nd century AD. It bears the inscription Mansio Scampa: the very first known name of Elbasan, then a simple stopover on the Via Egnatia.
