Thracian Tomb of Kazanlak
Thracian Tomb of Kazanlak, Archaeological tomb in Stara Zagora Province, Bulgaria
The Thracian Tomb of Kazanlak features a narrow corridor leading to a round burial chamber decorated with detailed murals depicting ceremonial scenes.
The tomb, constructed in the 4th century BCE, contains frescoes representing significant Thracian funerary customs and architectural methods of ancient Bulgarian civilization.
The interior murals showcase musicians in processions, horses drawing chariots, and a Thracian couple participating in a ritual funeral feast.
Due to preservation concerns, visitors observe a precise replica of the tomb while the original structure remains closed to maintain its ancient frescoes.
The seated woman from the tomb's mural appears on Bulgaria's 50 stotinki coin, demonstrating the national importance of this archaeological treasure.
