Bulgaria National Assembly Building

The National Assembly Building features a symmetrical white facade with arched windows, columns, and ornate architectural details spanning multiple floors.

The parliament building, completed in 1886 under the supervision of builder Friedrich Wilhelm Gustav Liebe, represents Bulgaria's post-Ottoman constitutional monarchy period.

The structure appears on Bulgarian twenty leva banknotes, symbolizing the nation's democratic institutions and legislative processes.

The parliament building contains 240 seats in its main chamber, administrative offices, and meeting rooms for conducting legislative sessions and political debates.

The building changed from its original off-white color to pure white during the late twentieth century, marking a visual transformation in Sofia's cityscape.
