At the bottom of the castle complex there are the remains of the old citadel hamam or Turkish bath, now converted to a church as well as the Dollma Teqe. The Dollma Teqe is a small Bektashi temple originally built in 1789.
This beautifully decorated teqe has been maintained by the Dollma family since it was built. Legend has it that Skanderbeg himself reputedly planted the knotted olive tree at the front.
