Pyramid of Tirana

Common card · No. 247456

The Pyramid of Tirana (Albanian: Piramida e Tiranës) is a structure and former museum located in Tirana, the capital of Albania. It opened as a museum in 1988 and became a conference center in 1991 following the collapse of Communism. During the 1999 Kosovo War, the building was used as a NATO base. In 2018, a new project was unveiled by the Albanian-American Development Foundation (AADF) that would turn the pyramid into a youth IT centre for Creative Technologies with a focus on computer programming, robotics, and start ups under the name of TUMO Center Tirana. The renovated structure, transformed by MVRDV, was opened to the public in 2023.
