The Ethnographic Museum, also known as the “House of Llave,” is located along the main road leading to the Berat Castle. After the building was restored in 1979, it was transformed into the Ethnographic Museum of Berat. This characteristic house is currently one of the few examples of homes with a balcony. It has maintained its original features with minimal changes, preserving both its external and internal decorative values.
On the upper floor, visitors are introduced to several examples of rooms with respective functions related to family life in the Berat region. An old well in the courtyard of the house is a feature that characterizes not only Berat homes but is also widely spread throughout Albania. The Ethnographic Museum boasts a rich collection of 1,300 objects, which serves as an important testament to the traditions of the Berat region.
