Zrnovsko (Macedonian: Зрновско; Albanian: Zaroshkë) is a village in the Pustec Municipality of the Korçë County in Albania.[1][2] It is located at the southeastern end of Lake Prespa, south of the village of Pustec.

History

While under the Bulgarian Exarchate in 1905, the village was recorded as consisting of 120 Orthodox Christians.[3] In 1911, it was found to contain sixteen houses and 109 inhabitants.[4]

In 2013, the village's name, which had been changed to Zaroshkë during communist Albania, was reverted back to Zrnovsko.[5]
