Pantheon Mother Bulgaria

Pantheon Mother Bulgaria is a monumental structure built from rose-colored concrete in a pyramidal form, standing on a hilltop near Gurgulyat village. At its center stands a bronze statue of a mourning female figure, with the four sections of the monument creating an open design that frames the mountainous surroundings.

This monument was built in 1985 to commemorate the battles from the Serbo-Bulgarian War that took place at this location in 1885. The site became a memorial to the military conflict that shaped the region's history.

The monument incorporates narrow openings in its walls that mirror traditional military fortification designs while housing a bronze representation of national grief.

The site sits on a hilltop accessible by car from Slivnitsa, with parking available and recreational spaces nearby for visitors. The open location makes it easy to explore the monument and its surroundings at a comfortable pace.

The four concrete sections form an open pyramid design that intentionally frames views of the surrounding mountains rather than blocking them. This approach creates a visual connection between the monument and the landscape it stands within.
