About Silistra History Museum and Medzhidi Tabia Fortress

The Regional History Museum in Silistra holds the history of the town and region from antiquity to today. Silistra was the Roman city of Durostorum and later a major centre of medieval Bulgaria, and the museum shows Roman and medieval objects of national importance.

Medzhidi Tabia is a stone fortress on a hill above the town, built by the Ottomans in 1841–1853, with walls, a moat and underground rooms. It is one of the best-preserved fortresses of its age in Europe.
