About this spot
The Tanner's Bridge (Albanian: Ura e Tabakëve) is an 18th-century Ottoman period stone footbridge. The bridge, built near the Tanner's Mosque, was once part of the Saint George Road that linked Tirana with the eastern highlands. The road was the route by which livestock and produce entered the city. The bridge crossed the Lana stream near the area where butcher's shops and leather workers were located. The bridge fell into disrepair when the Lana was diverted in the 1930s. In the 1990s the bridge was restored for use by pedestrians.
