Fushë-Çidhën is a village and a former municipality in the Dibër County, northeastern Albania. At the 2015 local government reform it became a subdivision of the municipality Dibër. [1] The population at the 2011 census was 2,909. [2]

Demographic History
The settlements of Kidhina e Sipërme and Kidhina e Poshtme are attested in the Ottoman defter of 1467 as villages belonging to the timar of Karagöz in the vilayet of Lower Dibra. The former village had a total of 16 households which were represented by the following household heads: Gjergj Kariqi, Leka Laçi, Gjin Vlashi, Pashtari, Gjon Shumbati, Tolë Gjoneshi, Dimitri Gjoneshi, Kolë Bala, Vlash Shashari, Kolë Shashari, Llazar Arrasi, Gjon Manesi, Gjon Shashari, Peter Pashtari, Gjergj Vlashi, and Petër Dabeci.
The latter settlement on the other hand had only eight households represented by the following: Dimitri Domi, Gjin Peshtiri, Gjin Dushkizi, Mano Madhi, Gjon Shashari, Milo Sokoli, and Dimitri Kusari (possibly, Kosari). [4]
