A number of social monuments dating back since its construction may be still seen along the Egnatia road. They have resisted the time and have remained as historical evidences at the service of the visitors, tourist and cultural monuments experts. One of these premises is a Turkish bath situated in Bradadesh village. 

This building was constructed by the end of 2th century serving as a resting place for the travelers. The Turkish bath was equipped with personnel that provided massages and bathes to those unable of doing so due to the physical limitations, and others that took care of the fire and cleaning process. This bath was shut down during the 2nd half of the 20th century, a period coinciding with the communist-era in Albania, but was still preserved as historical building.

A large number of domestic and foreign tourists visit this Turkish bath each year due to the interest generated by the fact that this antique road connected Rome with Constantinople.
