Record of earthquakes
Since antiquity, earthquakes in Durrës and the surrounding regions have disrupted everyday living. The first recorded event occurred somewhat later in the 4th century. In c. 1273, it was wrecked by a devastating earthquake (according to George Pachymeres ) but soon recovered. An earthquake in 1926 damaged some of the city and the rebuilding that followed gave the city its more modern appearance. On 26 November 2019, a 6.4-magnitude earthquake struck Albania, killing 51.
