George Castriot known as Skanderbeg was Albanian commander who was part of the Ottoman Empire during the 14th century. Few years after he left the Ottoman Empire service, he made a revolution in Albania. Later people recognized him as the Lord of Albania. For Albanians, Skanderbeg is more than a national hero…he is a symbol for the Albanians. Nowadays tourists can visit Skenderbeg Tomb for a really low admission fee.
