It's only a few lev to get into the museum but an interesting distraction for an hour or two. Recently renovated and very old, third century.
This museum is not huge for an archaeological site it the displays are nice and the material is varied. Took about 45-60 minutes to see...worth a look
Unfortunately closed exactly in weekends. The same situation with the Etnographic Exhibition. Also the Arts Gallery is closed now.
Loads of great objects on display that can take you through the area's rich archaeological past. Fun for any history buff and even for people who are not so keen on history. They occasionally have classical concerts there which are quite great - try and catch one during the Apollonia festival late August and early September.
Clean,some interesting and very old exhibits,information boards on the walls.But the staff sit outside chatting so no one to ask if you want more information about the area.
Amazing exibits, water flow systems from centuries ago! Vampire skeleton! Really? Well worth a visit
Sozopol is located on the place where a few civilization stamped, A lot of items were found. Most of them are present in museum. Visit museum. Fare is 8 lev for adults and 3 for children. Half of expositions are dedicated to the period of V-III centuries BC
прямо с остатков каменной крепостной стены можно попасть в музей, лучше всего ближе к закрытию, народа поменьше, мне понравилось, амфоры, сосуды для зерна, как в греческих легендах)) был в 2008 году, прямо на крепостной стене отличное кафе с видом на залив))
Visited here as part of an organised trip. To be honest not too impressed. All the exhibits seemed to be just pottery found locally. Toilet facilities very poor. No toilet paper in ladies toilet and if it wasn't for a kind lady from another tour handing out tissues the ladies would have had problems. Staff not too friendly and seemed as though the wished we were jot there so they could get on with their chatting to each other. Some of the narratives in other languages, but mainly Bulgarian, making it difficult to understand what the artifact was about.
I was really impressed by the pottery on display - it's amazing what they could produce 4 or 5 centuries BC. We don't seem to have made that much progress really. The museum is housed in a wonderful building too. I particularly liked one label which told me I was looking at 'stuff' from a Greek tomb!
