Church of Apostle Paul and Saint Asteios, Orthodox church

7 mins
The Church of Apostle Paul and Saint Asteios is a prominent Orthodox church located in the city of Durrës, Albania. Dedicated to the Apostle Paul—who is believed to have spread Christianity in the region—and Saint Asteios, an early bishop and martyr of Durrës, the church symbolizes the city’s deep Christian heritage. Built between 1994 and 2002 and officially consecrated in 2009, it features a basilica-style design with a central dome, white stone exterior, and Byzantine red-tiled roof. Today it serves as an important place of worship and a spiritual landmark for the Orthodox community in Durrës.
Venetian Tower

Venetian Tower

Historical landmark
1 min
The Venetian Tower stands as one of the most interesting and beautiful historical defensive structures in Durrës. It is an integral part of the Byzantine fortress of Durrës, declared a first-category cultural monument. It was once regarded as one of the most formidable defense structures along the western coast of the Adriatic Sea. The present-day fortress traces its roots to the initial construction efforts of Byzantine Emperor Anastasius I (491–518), a native of Durrës (ancient Dyrrhachium). Built atop the remains of the Byzantine tower around the XV century, the Venetian Tower was fortified with cannons to protect the city from the sea. Specifically designed to be armed with artillery, it served as a crucial observation point for monitoring the surrounding area. In 2022-2023 the Venetian Tower was renovated and transformed into the first Albanian Heritage Interpretation Center and now offers visitors the chance to explore historical events and places through state-of-the-art digital and multimedia tools. These include VR headsets, audio guides, dome multimedia projections and other activities, which combine entertainment with a more in-depth look at the city’s ancient history.

Amphitheatre of Durrës

Amphitheatre of Durrës

Historical landmark
5 mins
This is the largest and most important amphitheater in the Balkans, built at the beginning of the 1st century AD. It contains remarkable functional and structural architectural features, unique in Albania. Systematic excavations began in 1966, and to date, half of the monument has been unearthed. The amphitheater is located in the center of the city; the western cavea is built into the hillside, while the opposite side rises from flat ground. The amphitheater is elliptical in shape with a diameter of 136 meters. The height of the cavea, measured from the base, is 20 meters. The seating capacity was between 15,000 and 20,000 spectators. These tiers were covered with white slabs. Gladiators fought in the arena. In terms of construction, the cavea of ​​the amphitheater relied on a system of stone vaults that encircled the entire structure. The grandeur and technical achievement of this amphitheater testify to the flourishing of the city of Durrës during the early centuries AD. After undergoing social and economic changes following the 4th century, the Durrës amphitheater ceased to function as such. In one of its galleries, a Byzantine chapel was built in the 10th century, its walls decorated with mosaics depicting various figures.

I’m Zach Alexander, an artist and musician based in the Atlanta area. Often compared to Michael Buble, John Mayer, and Jason Mraz stylistically, I combine an eclectic mix of classic songs from a variety of decades and genres with a relaxing, coffeehouse jazz influenced approach that will perfectly complement your next event in a way that is subtle yet engaging. I am a regular performer at St. Regis, Waldorf Astoria, Intercontinental Buckhead, and Atlanta Apparel, and play at corporate events for various hotels throughout the Atlanta area such as the Whitley, The W, and the Ritz Carlton. as well as dozens of galas, clubs, and wedding venues. This year, I performed for Arthur Blank’s Super Bowl party with Lilac Wine Trio in New Orleans, and just 2 months later, was invited to perform a solo acoustic set for The Masters and its VIP guests at an event sponsored by IBM in Augusta. I have a complete audio setup and an diverse musical repertoire that will satisfy virtually any demographic. Please feel welcome to reach out and discuss your performance needs so that fill your event with tasteful acoustic arrangements of the classic songs we all know and love.
