This year we celebrated the Czech National Day with a special event in Gjirokaster on October 29, 2020.
Gjirokaster is a cultural center of southern Albania, its historical part belongs to UNESCO heritage sites. Moreover, since May 2019 there is a group of Czech police officers working there under Frontex mission.
The Czech night included screening of Oscar winner movie Kolja (for the first time with Albanian translation), picture exhibition on Czech-Albanian police cooperation and a special appreciation for the Czech police. Certificate of appreciation by the City Hall Gjirokaster for the Police of the Czech Republic is a confirmation of yearlong excellent cooperation between both police forces.
