The Royal Villa of Durrës, located in Durrës, Albania, served as a summer residence for the Albanian royal family during the reign of King Zog I. Constructed in the 1930s, the villa is an elegant example of early 20th-century architecture, blending neoclassical and modernist elements. Positioned on a hill overlooking the Adriatic Sea, the villa offers stunning panoramic views and features expansive gardens. Though it fell into disrepair during the communist era, restoration efforts have aimed to preserve its historical significance and architectural beauty.
