Georgi Benkovski House Museum

Reviewed By ValKal - New York City, New York

This museum house is about 10 minutes walk from the center. It is a very nice walk up the hill so enjoy. You can start here and then do the rest 5 or you can end here after you've visited all the rest. In the packaged price, this house is included.
The monument of Benkovski is right above his house. From there you can see a stunning view of the city. Must see!

Lyutov House Museum

Reviewed By ValKal - New York City, New York

"Ljutov’s House is an impressive example of the architecture of the period at its best. It was build in 1854 for the wealthy citizen of Korprivshtiza Stefan Topalov by Plovdiv master-buildings. It has richly painted walls and beautiful wood-curved ceilings. In 1906 the house was sold to the local merchant Petko Lyutov from where its name derives. The ground floor holds a display of “plasti” – handmade colorful covers made from wool used as floor covers and comfortable thick bed covers. The plasti were made by special rolling and pressing methods and were colored with natural dyes."

Oslekov's House

Reviewed By Kay M - Augusta, GA

This was the home of Nencho Oslekov who was a wealthy merchant who had the home built around 1853 by master-builders from the Smolyan School. During the uprising of the Bulgarians against the Turks in 1876, Oslekov manufactured wool clothing for the soldiers and aided them in many other ways as well. He was hung after the defeat of the uprising against the Turks for his role in aiding them. It has beautiful detail, especially the wooden ceilings.
