Pleven, Administrative region in northern Bulgaria

The province covers a large territory in north-central Bulgaria, characterized by agricultural plains, limestone hills, and the Vit River crossing through the region.

The area gained international attention during the 1877 Siege of Pleven, a major battle of the Russo-Turkish War that lasted five months.

The Regional History Museum in Pleven displays over 250,000 exhibits across 24 halls, including artifacts from Roman settlements and an extensive collection of ancient coins.

The region maintains strong transportation connections through railways and roads, linking major Bulgarian cities while supporting agricultural and industrial activities.

The Pleven Panorama museum complex presents detailed battle scenes from the Russo-Turkish War through a circular painting measuring 115 meters in length.
