Plovdiv Regional Ethnographic Museum, Ethnographic museum in Plovdiv old town, Bulgaria.
The museum preserves over 60,000 artifacts representing daily life, traditions, and crafts from the Plovdiv region within a grand four-story building.
Founded in 1917, the museum relocated in 1938 to the Kuyumdzhioglu House, an 1847 residence that exemplifies Bulgarian Baroque architecture.
The collections include traditional costumes, textiles, agricultural tools, musical instruments, and furniture that reflect the regional heritage of Thrace.
The museum welcomes visitors every day from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, offering guided tours through six thematic exhibition rooms.
The building features ornate wood-carved ceilings in each room and served multiple functions, including a girls' boarding school and vinegar factory.
