Kalaja

The Ulcinj Castle (Montenegrin Cyrillic: Калjаја; Albanian: Kalaja e Ulqinit) or Ulcinj Old Town (Montenegrin Cyrillic: Стари град Улцињ / Stari grad Ulcinj; Albanian: Qyteti i vjetër i Ulqinit) is an ancient castle and neighborhood in Ulcinj, Montenegro. Today it is mostly inhabited by Albanians, it was built by the Illyrians on a small peninsula at the right side of the Pristan Gulf, which is part of the Adriatic Sea. Today, oldest remains are the Cyclopean Wall. The castle has been restored many times since it was first built although major changes were made by the Byzantines, Serbs, Venetians, and Ottomans. The modern city of Ulcinj was built outside of this castle.
