Vidin, Municipality seat on Danube River, Bulgaria.
The city stands at 34 meters above sea level, stretching along two distinct curves of the Danube River in northwestern Bulgaria.
Established as Bononia during Roman times, Vidin developed through Byzantine and Ottoman periods into a strategic fortress city on the Danube.
The city contains temples of three religions, including the cathedral of St. Dimitar, a synagogue, and multiple architectural monuments from different periods.
Two European transport corridors intersect in Vidin, connecting Dresden to Istanbul and providing access across the Danube through ferry services.
The Baba Vida fortress, constructed on ancient Roman foundations, remains the only completely preserved medieval castle in Bulgaria.
