Lushnjë is a city in west-central Albania.

It became famous in 1920 when it became the provisional capital of Albania and the place of the Congress of Lushnje.

Close to the town is the site of Savra Field, the first battle between Principality of Zeta and Ottoman Empire occurred in 1385.

Lushnjë and the nearby Fier, were the location of a number of concentration camps during the Communist Regime.
