Konaka Museum

The Konaka Museum occupies an 18th-century building with a central tower, displaying archaeological artifacts and historical collections across multiple exhibition halls.

Originally constructed as a residence for Ottoman ruler Osman Pazvantoğlu, the building later served as a police station before its transformation into a museum in 1956.

The museum exhibitions document the development of Vidin through archaeological findings, ethnographic collections, and artifacts from prehistoric times to the modern period.

Located at 2 Obshtinska Street in Vidin, the museum maintains regular opening hours and offers guided tours through its archaeological and ethnographic sections.

The building combines Ottoman architectural elements with Bulgarian Renaissance features, resulting from reconstruction work after Bulgaria gained independence.
