About Pleven: Panorama 1877, Chapel-Mausoleum and History Museum

The Pleven Panorama, "Pleven Epopee 1877", depicts the five-month Siege of Plevna in the Russo-Turkish War of 1877–78, which led to the Liberation of Bulgaria. It was painted by 13 Russian and Bulgarian artists and opened in 1977 for the centenary.

The Chapel-Mausoleum of St. George the Conqueror, built in 1903–1907 by Pencho Koychev, holds the remains of Russian and Romanian soldiers who fell at Plevna. The Regional History Museum, founded in 1953, is one of the largest in Bulgaria, with more than 180,000 items.
