Kolë Idromeno, one of the most prominent figures of Albanian art of the 19th and early 20th centuries, is noted for his contribution in several fields, including architecture. “A Guide to the Architecture of Idromeno” is conceived as a conversation about the work and contribution of Idromeno as an architect. Through this presentation we wish to bring to the collective memory the city of those years, and the impact he had on the urban development of Shkodra.
