Istenszülő elszenderedése templom (Labova e Kryqit)

Az Istenszülő elszenderedése templom (albán Kisha e Fjetjes së Virgjëreshës) vagy Szűz Mária-templom (Kisha e Shën Mërisë) feltehetően a 13. században bizánci stílusban épült görögkeleti templom Dél-Albániában, a Libohova közelében található Labova e Kryqit faluban. Története A mai falu közelében már a vaskor kései szakaszában egy kisebb erődítés állt, amelyet a hellenisztikus korszakban, az i. e. 3–2. században megerősítettek. A jelenlegi templom feltehetően a 13. században, az Epiruszi Despotátus felvirágzásának időszakában épült egy késő ókori, 6. századi bazilika alapjain. A körülötte lévő falu később elnéptelenedett, és lakossága csak a késő oszmán kor óta kontinuus. 1783-ban a templomot kibővítették, ekkor épült az exonarthex és a harangtorony, egyúttal kisebb átalakítások érték a templom belső terét is. Fekvése és leírása Labova e Kryqit a közeli Libohova felől a suhai aszfaltúton közelíthető meg, a templom a falu központjában található. A keleti tájolású téglatemplomot egy szokatlanul magas kupoladobon nyugvó téglakupola koronázza. A kupoladob kissé megdőlt, a múltban statikailag többször is meg kellett erősíteni. Az 1783-ban mészkőből épült, epiruszi típusú, tornácszerű exonarthexből pár lépcsőfok vezet fel a boltozatos mennyezetű, a főhajóra merőleges tengelyű narthexbe. Maga a főhajó csaknem négyzetes alaprajzú, amelyet a kupoladobot alátámasztó kettős árkád tagol el a mellékhajóktól. A narthex feletti kialakított álkarzat megoldása több jelentősebb templomból, így például az ártai Parigorítisza-templomból vagy a szaloniki Szent Szófia-székesegyházból is ismert. A félköríves apszisokat 1776-ban rekonstruálták, valamint 1783-ban épült fel a templom déli falához csatlakozó harangtorony is. A korábban lemeszelt 13. századi és későbbi freskókat restaurálták, különösen értékesek a díszesen faragott faikonosztáz mögötti szentélyfalon látható festmények.

Hajji Bendo Mosque

The Hajji Bendo Mosque (Albanian: Xhamia e Haxhi Bendos) or Haji Bedo Mosque (Xhamia e Sopotit) is an Ottoman-era former Sunni mosque, that was built before the 17th century inside the Borsh Castle on the Sopot hill of Himara, Albania. The former mosque was badly damaged in the 20th century by the Greeks, further damaged during the Communist dictatorship of Enver Hoxha in 1967, and remains in a ruined state. The former mosque was designated as a Cultural Monument of Albania. Overview The dome, which used to be of red tiles, is now covered with concrete. The Muslim frescoes and nakkaşlık works inside are endangered. Half the stone minaret is still missing until today. The Hajji Bendo Mosque was built before the 17th century and named after the vassal of Ali Pasha of Janina, Haxhi Bendo. After being destroyed in the 20th century by the Greeks, since Communism the mosque did not got rebuilt for the local Albanian population under the reign of post-Communist regime, while most of the Byzantine-Greek churches and monasteries of the region get rebuilt.

Sanctuary of Our Lady of Good Counsel

The Basilica of Our Lady of Good Counsel (Albanian: Bazilika e Zojës së Këshillit të Mirë) or Kisha e Zojës is a Roman Catholic shrine and Minor Basilica in Shkoder dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary under the title of Our Lady of Good Counsel, the Patroness of the Republic of Albania. At the foot of Rozafa Castle, the church began construction in 1917 under the Austro-Hungarian occupation of Albania during World War I. Highly revered by Albanian Catholics, it was demolished as a cult object during the Albanian Cultural Revolution, only to be rebuilt after the fall of communism. Pope John Paul II visited the shrine on 25 April 1993. Pope Francis issued a Pontifical decree which raised the shrine to the status of Minor Basilica on 22 April 2024. History A set of old walls at the site had long been venerated by Catholics as the ruins of a church to Our Lady of Good Counsel and by Muslims as that of a Bektashi Order khanqah. Ecclesiastical historian Daniele Farlati described an active dervish khanqah (Albanian: tekke) in the 18th century. The Ottoman government blocked off the walls when quarrels arose over which faith was entitled to their use, referring the matter to a commission including Jusuf Effendi Golemi and Shani Dedëjakupeva, who held that both Catholics and Muslims could worship there. In 1917, the Catholic clergy gained Austro-Hungarian approval to build the church, provoking protests by Muslims in front of the Ministry of War building in Vienna. The church was dedicated to Our Lady of Good Counsel and completed in 1930. The Archbishop of Shkodër, Jak Serreqi, laid the cornerstone on March 25, 1917, and was buried there in 1922. In 1946, after the communist takeover, over two thousand pilgrims visited, but not long after, it was turned into a ballroom and eventually would be destroyed during the Cultural Revolution. After the fall of communism, the church was rebuilt and its cornerstone was blessed by Pope John Paul II in 1993. The project was funded by Simeone Duca, a noted theologian belonging to the Arbanasi community of Albanians in Zadar, Croatia. On April 26, 2024, coinciding with the feast of Our Lady of Good Counsel, the shrine was formally declared a minor basilica. This distinction was decreed through the Dicastery for Divine Worship on April 22, 2024 for the Archdiocese of Shkodër–Pult, which makes it the first basilica in Albania. References
Sanctuaire Notre-Dame-du-Bon-Conseil de Scutari

Le sanctuaire Notre-Dame-du-Bon-Conseil de Scutari est une église située à Scutari (ville aussi appelée Shkodër) en Albanie. L’Église catholique la rattache à l’archidiocèse de Shkodër-Pult, et la Conférence épiscopale d’Albanie lui donne le statut de sanctuaire national. Le sanctuaire est lié dans son histoire — ou au moins dans le récit qui en est fait — au sanctuaire Notre-Dame-du-Bon-Conseil de Genazzano en Italie. Historique Une église initiale existe dès le VIe siècle. La république de Venise s’empare du territoire de Scutari en 1396, et s’efforce ensuite de le garder face à l’expansion de l’Empire ottoman, renforçant notamment le château de Rozafa. L’église est détruite par un raid en 1467, et la ville est cédée le 25 janvier 1479. L’histoire religieuse raconte qu’à la destruction du sanctuaire, un tableau se retrouve « transporté par des anges » le 25 avril à Genazzano en Italie, où la renommée du miracle aide à achever la construction d’un nouveau sanctuaire Notre-Dame-du-Bon-Conseil. La tradition associe plusieurs miracles au lieu, malgré la destruction des signes catholiques par les Ottomans. C’est avec le départ des Ottomans, le 28 novembre 1912, qu’il est à nouveau permis de construire des églises. En 1917, un nouveau sanctuaire, toujours dédié à Notre-Dame du Bon Conseil, commence sa construction sur les ruines de l’ancien : le terrain de 10 262 m2 devient propriété de l’archidiocèse de Shkodër le 7 juillet 1917, et la première pierre a été bénie le 31 juillet et mise en place le 17 août. Il est achevé en 1930, mais est rasé par le régime communiste, qui s’implante entre 1944 et 1946, et est dans les derniers à s’effondrer, fin 1990. En 1993, Jean-Paul II visite l’Albanie, et bénit le 25 avril la première pierre du nouveau sanctuaire de Scutari, qui est achevé le 24 mai 1998.

St. Mary's Monastery, Zvërnec

The St. Mary’s Monastery is an Orthodox monastery located on the Zvërnec Island, in the Narta Lagoon near the village of Zvërnec within the municipality of Vlora. It houses a church dedicated to the Dormition of Mary Theotókos. History When St. Mary’s Monastery was founded—most likely between the 11th and 14th centuries—it did so in a landscape where the present-day village of Zvërnec did not yet exist. At that time, both the island and the adjacent mainland were under the ecclesiastical and administrative jurisdiction of the nearby village of Nartë. The modern settlement of Zvërnec emerged only in later centuries along the shore of the lagoon, and it was only thereafter that the monastery became associated with this newer village by proximity. Much of the complex most likely dates back to the 19th century. The complex has been protected as a cultural monument since 1963.

Monastero di Zvërnec

Il monastero di Zvërnec è un monastero ortodosso sito sull'isola di Zvërnec, nella laguna di Narta nei pressi dell'omonimo villaggio, all'interno della municipalità di Valona. Esso ospita una chiesa dedicata alla Dormizione di Maria Theotókos. Il complesso è tutelato come monumento culturale dal 1963. Storia Il primo nucleo del monastero è stato costruito probabilmente tra il XII e il XIV secolo anche se buona parte degli edifici risale probabilmente al XIX secolo. Almeno fino agli anni 1950 il monastero è stato amministrato dalla metropolia di Berat. Pur essendo stato riconosciuto come monumento culturale nel 1963, il monastero fu abbandonato nel 1967, probabilmente in conseguenza delle politiche religiose perseguite da Enver Hoxha, che in un discorso pubblicato proprio in quell'anno su Zëri i Popullit accomunò la religione all'oppio dei popoli (riprendendo una celebre definizione data dal filosofo Karl Marx), e subì danni dovuti all'incuria, venendo utilizzato anche come stalla; sempre nel 1967 la biblioteca del monastero è stata distrutta da un incendio. Sotto il regime socialista il monastero fu inoltre trasformato in campo di internamento dei prigionieri politici. Sul finire degli anni '60 la chiesa era in un pessimo stato di conservazione, come testimoniano alcune foto conservate nell'archivio dell'Istituto nazionale dei beni culturali, e per questo nel 1972 fu portato avanti il primo restauro conservativo. Un ulteriore intervento di restauro è stato portato avanti nel 2001. Descrizione Il monastero si trova sull'isola di Zvërnec, nella laguna di Narta, ed è collegato all'omonimo villaggio tramite un ponticello pedonale in legno lungo circa 300 metri. Si compone di cinque edifici: uno di questi, sostenuto da un muro perimetrale, veniva utilizzato come residenza del vescovo/metropolita, un altro, soprannominato casa dei Nartioti, un magazzino, un edificio dedicato agli ospiti più illustri e la casa del sacerdote. Ad essi si aggiunge il catholicon del monastero, dedicato alla Dormizione di Maria Theotókos, è suddivisibile in quattro ambienti: nartece, naos, bema ed esonartece porticato (quest'ultimo aggiunto successivamente sul lato settentrionale della chiesa) e presenta una pianta a croce libera con una piccola cupola cilindrica e un piccolo campanile posto sul tetto dell'esonartece. Presso il monastero è sito anche un cimitero, in cui è tumulata tra gli altri Marigo Posio, celebre per aver cucito la prima bandiera albanese sventolata da Ismail Qemali in occasione della dichiarazione d'indipendenza dell'Albania proclamata il 28 novembre 1912 a Valona. Tradizioni La tradizione di maggiore importanza è la festa dell'Assunzione che si svolge tra il 14 e il 15 agosto: la sera del 14 agosto i fedeli si recano sull'isola, dove attendono il giorno successivo consumando cibo, cantando e ballando danze tradizionali; la giornata del 15 agosto è invece dedicata alle funzioni religiose.

Katedrála svatého Štěpána (Skadar)

Katedrála svatého Štěpána ve Skadaru (albánsky Katedralja e Shën Shtjefnit) je římskokatolická katedrála ve severoalbánském městě Skadar. Je duchovním centrem římskokatolických věřících v Albánii. Albánská římskokatolická komunita představuje více než 10 % obyvatel země a je soustředěna právě v severní části Albánie. Historie Albánští katolíci se snažili o vybudování důstojného chrámu již v dobách osmanské nadvlády. V roce 1851 dal osmanský sultán Abdülmecid I. souhlas k vybudování katolické katedrály a sám přispěl finančním darem na její výstavbu. Peníze poslal i římský papež Pius IX. a mnozí mecenáši ze zahraničí (zejména z Itálie a Rakousko-Uherska). I místní katolíci zorganizovali finanční sbírku. Peněz však bylo málo, a tak se stavba prodlužovala. Na její stavbě se podíleli zejména rakouští architekti. Dokončena byla až v roce 1898 a v této době se stala největší katedrálou na Balkánském poloostrově. Během balkánských válek byla poškozena při obléhání černohorskými vojsky. Tehdy utrpěla rozsáhlé škody. V souvislosti s kampaní albánské komunistické vlády v 60. letech, kdy byla země vyhlášena ateistickým státem, byla katedrála katolíkům odňata a přebudována na sportovní halu. Katolickým věřícím se vrátila až po pádu komunistického režimu v roce 1990. V roce 1993 katedrálu navštívil i papež Jan Pavel II., který zde konsekroval čtyři katolické biskupy Albánie.

Catedral de San Esteban (Shkodër)

La Catedral de San Esteban​ o bien Catedral de Shkodër​ (en albanés: Katedralja e Shkodrës) es una catedral en la ciudad de Shkodër en el noroeste del país europeo de Albania, sede de la arquidiócesis de Shkodër-Pult.​ Este edificio católico está dedicada a San Esteban. El terreno fue donado por el mecenas Palok Krandja. Los trabajos de construcción comenzaron el 7 de abril de 1858, después de un retraso importante.​ Ese día hubo una pomposa ceremonia, ya que se quería que la catedral fuera una de las mayores iglesias de los Balcanes, y participaron muchas personalidades diplomáticas. La primera fase de construcción acabó en 1867.​ La catedral tenía 74 metros de largo, 50 metros de ancho y 23,5 metros de alto. Inicialmente, la nave principal tenía capacidad para 6.000 personas.​ Durante el asedio de Escutari (1912-1913) la catedral fue dañada por el ejército de Montenegro, en particular el lado sureste, provocando un incendio en la torre del campanario. La Catedral fue cerrada en 1967 y reabierta en 1990. La dedicatoria de esta iglesia a San Esteban, el primer santo patrón de la ciudad es por una iglesia ya existente con ese nombre, ahora enterrada bajo el castillo de Rozafa, y en cuyo lugar hoy existe una mezquita. Marin Barleti, un notable escritor albanés del siglo XVI menciona la antigua iglesia y el santo patrón de la ciudad. En 1990 la catedral fue reabierta al culto y el 11 de noviembre de 1990 se celebró la primera misa en el país desde 1967 en la catedral. Una simbólica misa se celebró en la catedral el 21 de marzo de 1991. En 1993 fue visitada por el papa Juan Pablo II.
