Historically, Vushtrri may have been known as Vichiana. During the Roman invasion of Dardania in the 1st century BC, the Romans added the Latin suffix “um” to Vician’s name, giving rise to the name Vitianum. The name Vushtri in Albanian comes from the name of the plant Ononis spinosa, which grows abundantly in this region.
The main feature of the city is its cultural and historical heritage. The city castle, stone bridge, public bath and Cesme fountain were built many centuries ago and are the main attractions of Vushtrri.
