Shirgj[1][2] (sometimes Shirq) is a settlement in the former Dajç municipality, Shkodër County, northern Albania.[3][4] At the 2015 local government reform it became part of the municipality Shkodër.[5]

At the banks of the river Buna a little bit outside the village lie the ruins of the Shirgj Church from the late 13th century.
