List of Freedom of the City recipients : ウィキペディア英語版 | List of Freedom of the City recipients
The Freedom of the City is an honour bestowed by a city council upon a person (or persons) to whom the city wishes to pay tribute. In medieval times, the title of "freeman" would entitle the bearer to special privileges, such as the right to vote or own property, but few of these privileges are still relevant today; in contemporary society, the granting of the Freedom of the City is seen more as a symbolic gesture. In some countries, esteemed individuals are instead awarded the Key to the City, which usually takes the form of an ornamental key. Other places have their own, unique local variants, such as the white Stetson hats awarded by the Canadian city of Calgary. Some recipients of the Freedom of the City (or the Key to the City) are local residents who are held in high regard by the community; others are visiting celebrities or dignitaries. This list only includes notable recipients. ==Albania==
