House of Leaves Museum

Museum4.3 · 2 2834.5 · 261≈ 1 h 15 minEntry: ~700 ALL

A museum of secret surveillance in the former headquarters of the Sigurimi, Albania's communist secret police. Behind the leafy facade lie rooms of tapped phone conversations, denunciations, spy cameras and personal files of 'enemies of the people'; the soundscape makes the walk-through especially chilling. Opened in 2017 — and bring cash, as cards are not accepted.
