Varna Cathedral

The Cathedral of the Assumption of the Virgini in Varna has become one of the most popular symbols of this picturesque Bulgarian city on the western Black Sea coast.

It is the cathedral of the Varna - Preslav metropolitan of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church. Opened for visitors every day with free entrance.

After the adoption of Christianity as the official and sole religion in the First Bulgarian Empire (681-1018) during the reign of Khan Boris I (852–889), Varna as an old Christian city became one of the most prominent religious centres in the large Bulgarian empire.
