  • 5/5 Klaus W. 4 years ago on Google • 1116 reviews
    For the price of 5 leva you get ti experience a lovely museum with thousands of exhibits, presented in chronological order with descriptions in both Bulgarian and English for close to all the exhibits. I ended up staying two hours here and it was worth every second. The building itself is beautiful from the outside as well as the inside and although an old construction it has been revamped offering a great experience for the visitor. The exhibition is standard Bulgarian regional musuem starting all the way back in the Neolithic and ending up in the modern era. As is typical for such places in Bulgaria, 500 years of Ottoman occupation are non-existent and no mention is made about the communist era

    Wonderful regional museum, must see. The first floor is home to unique exhibits from prehistory, the Roman fortresses Yatrus and Sexaginta Prista, as well as the medieval city of Cherven. The central place on the second floor is occupied by the silver treasure of Borovo.

    Very interesting place showing the local history with many specimens! We were actually told that they are just a fraction of what the museum actually possess. No reason to doubt it as Bulgaria has really deep history. I would recommend it if you are in town 😉

    Good collection of artifacts from prehistoric to modern times. The Borovo silver treasure and the medieval collections are quite impressive. Bring some warm clothes in the winter as it's a bit cold inside.
