The story of the first vestiges of Christianity in the country
The Chapel 'Saint Theodore Tyron' is one of the most interesting in the city. It is located amid the greenery of the Ayazmoto Park and it draws the visitors of the city with its humility and proximity to nature.
The location of the Chapel is related to the legend of Kniaz Boris's christening in the first half of 9th century A.D., which happened precisely in this place.
The Chapel boasts one of the few mosaic frescoes in a Bulgarian temple, which was created by the most talented masters in the country.
The visitors can enjoy nature's calm thanks to the beautiful park and the Chapel's welcoming curator. You can meet the friendly great tit birds, which allow children and adults to feed them from the palm of their hands.
