Mother Teresa Square is one of the most popular spaces in Tirana, especially during the warm days of the year when the steps surrounding it are full of young people. Also, many concerts, fairs and other activities take place in this square. The square was designed by Italian architect Gerardo Bosio and was built together with the boulevard between 1939-1941, during the Italian occupation of Albania. Located at the western end of Deshmorët e Kombit Boulevard, in this square there are a number of important buildings such as the University of Arts, the Polytechnic University of Tirana, the University of Tirana, the Archaeological Museum as well as the Albanological Studies Center. After the fall of Communism, the square was named after the missionary, peace Nobel laureate and Albanian Catholic saint, Mother Teresa.
