Varna to Show a Selection of Thracians’ Heritage Pieces
Balkan Travellers
The museum pieces include artefacts from the Panaguyrishte Treasure, the recently discovered mask of Teres, Odrysian Kingdom’s ruler, and a selection of the most interesting findings from different Bulgarian museums.
The exhibition is set to be one of the most large-scale projects carried out in Bulgaria until now. It will offer access to more than 100 exhibit pieces collected from over 15 museums throughout the country – this will be the first time they can be seen together.
The exhibition will open in June and it will stay until the end of the summer season in September, thus making seaside tourism richer by offering the chance for an impressive cultural experience.
