Hotel in Visokë – Olive Oil, Hazelnut Plantation and Oil Field

Visokë is a place whose character is shaped by landscape, agriculture, industrial history and regional connections.

Landscape

The Visokë oil field lies in Cretaceous–Paleogene deposits and in moderately hilly terrain without pronounced relief. Elevations range from 65 to 270 metres. Originally, the Visokë oil field had a productive area of 2,200 hectares. The Visokë oil field is a local mineralogical geomonument. The industrial use of the Visokë oil field is reflected in discharges of process water and oil leaks during the loading of tanker trucks. The geological designation describes the field's subsurface, while the elevation data define the topographical framework of the terrain. Together with its classification as a geomonument, these details provide an objective profile of the place. The references to discharges and leaks concern the industrial use of the Visokë oil field.

Cuisine

Bylis Olive Oil is an olive oil producer based in Visokë, Fier. There, the company operates a modern olive oil processing facility with seasonal processing volumes of approximately 150,000 to 200,000 litres. In Visokë, near the Gjanica River, there is also a hundred-year-old hazelnut plantation. The plantation covers 11 dynym of land with hazelnut and fruit trees. The agricultural connections range from processing to cultivation. The Albanian hazelnut variety “Visoka” gave the village of Visokë its name. Here, a local producer, seasonal processing and an older cultivated area come together. The reference to the Gjanica River indicates the plantation's location, while the name's history establishes a connection between the hazelnut and the village.

Culture

In 1988, a building in Visokë covered with slogans served as the headquarters of the Visokë oil field. In the wider regional area of Visokë, in the village of Cfir in Mallakastër (Fier County), there is a medieval stone fortification known as Cfir Castle. Thus, a building from Visokë's more recent industrial history stands alongside a medieval fortification in the wider regional area.
