The fortress of Albanopolis was once a stronghold of the Illyrian clan that gave the country Albania its name. The oldest use of the name of this settlement is seen in 'Geography', a work by Ptolemy (Claudius Ptolemy) written in the 1st century A.D. The remnants of this fortress (locally known as Zgerdheshi) rest on the slope of a hill in the south-west region of Krujë municipality and cover 10 hectares (25 acres). The fortress was built in an irregular shape that fit the natural contours of the land and given the rocky edges and natural streams it was able to hold a dominant spatial position. The structures were made with large carved rectangular stones which was quite a feat of the time period and provided protection.
