Propada Sanctuary, Thracian megalithic sanctuary and necropolis in Burgas Province, Bulgaria
The Propada Sanctuary contains multiple stone structures arranged in geometric patterns across an elevated position in the Bulgarian landscape near Buzovgrad.
Archaeological investigations have revealed that the sanctuary served as a ceremonial center during the Neolithic period, with continuous usage through different historical eras.
The stone formations include a square opening that aligns with solar movements during solstices, indicating advanced astronomical knowledge of ancient Thracian societies.
The sanctuary location connects to an ecological pathway system established in 2014, providing designated routes for exploration and educational opportunities.
Research at the site uncovered a Thracian Vault containing religious fireplaces, adding evidence about ritual practices of the ancient inhabitants.
