Church of Cyril and Methodius

Church of Cyril and Methodius

The largest and most important monument of Burgas is the church dedicated to Saints Cyril and Methodius. The church is included in the list of "100 most important monuments of Bulgaria".

The building is often called a cathedral because of its appearance, although it does not have this status because the seat of the diocese is in the town of Sliven.

The temple of the Orthodox Orthodox Church was built in 1897-1907 on the site of the original wooden church, which was demolished.

The two bell towers rise to a height of 33 metres and visitors are struck at first sight by the rather unusual bottle green colour of the facade.

Admission and opening hours

You can visit the church daily from 7:00-18:00.

Admission is free and inside you will see the traditional ornate decorations of the Orthodox Church.
