Location and distances
Varna is one of the oldest cities in Europe – founded in 580 BC by Greek settlers from Milet as a colony under the name of Odessos. The name is Thracian („settlement by the water“). Here for millennia the Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine civilizations flourished. After the Slavic-Bulgarian invasion, the city was renamed Varna (probably from the Old Bulgarian „vran“ – „black“, due to the color of the Black Sea). In 1444, the epic battle took place near Varna, in which the young Polish King Wladyslaw III was killed by the Ottomans – one of the key events in medieval European history.
For Ideal Center, Varna – character and atmosphere
After the Liberation in 1878, Varna experienced a real renaissance. The city became the main port of the Principality of Bulgaria, and from 1879 – the capital of the independent Varna Eparchy. Rich merchants, shipowners, and entrepreneurs built magnificent stone houses in the Neobaroque, Secession, and Neoclassical styles – many of which to this day define the appearance of the central streets. Architects from Vienna, Budapest, and Italy turned Varna into the „Little Vienna of the Balkans“. Here, the first Bulgarian summer resort (1925), the first Bulgarian opera, the oldest marine park in Bulgaria (1862), and the first Bulgarian cinema (1929) were opened.
