When did the Jews come to Albania?
When did the Jews come to Albania?

This population was distributed since late antiquity in the territories of the Roman Empire.

In the Middle Ages, they are documented at least since the c. XIII in Albanian cities, such as in Durrës, Vlorë, where they are distinguished by their ethnic-religious features.

At the end of the century XV groups of Jews of the Mediterranean Sephardic branch, followed by the Spanish and Portuguese inquisition, took refuge in Albania, mainly at the time of Sultan Bayazit II.

They created the first communities in Vlorë, Artë and Preveza and later also in Berat, Janina, Elbasan, Skopje, Prizren, Manastir etc.

The Jews were mainly engaged in trade and usury.

Their communities in Albania created their own religious and administrative-judicial institutions, as everywhere else. In the cities they lived in separate quarters.

In the Albanian state, there was no discrimination against them, as happened in many other countries of the Balkans and Western Europe.

During World War II, not only local Jews, but also foreigners, the Albanian people sheltered, protected and saved them from Nazi extermination.
