Bulgaria Landmarks > Varna p.2

The Roman thermae (2nd-3rd Century) - the remains of the largest Roman public building in Bulgaria, covering an area of over 7,000 sq.m. The unique architectural monument is declared an architectural reserve.

The St Athanasius Church (1838) is located next to the Roman thermae. It boasts a magnificent iconostasis, painted in the style of one of the most famous Bulgarian Iconographic Schools: the Tryavna School.

The Dolphinarium (1984) is located in the Sea Garden. Varna takes pride in it because it is the only Dolphinarium in the Balkans.

The 'Nicolaus Copernicus' National Observatory and Planetarium (1968) is the biggest and most modern planetarium in the Balkans and the first astronomical complex in Bulgaria.
