Historical Museum - BOOK PUBLISHING Exposition BOOK PUBLISHING
The Hristo G. Danov House-Museum
The house of Hristo G. Danov, Bulgaria's first large-scale publisher, now contains The Museum of Bulgarian Printing.
The Danov's House is situated very close to the "Virgin Mary" cathedral church in the Old Town. It once belonged to Hristo G. Danov - the founder of book-publishing in Bulgaria, called by his contemporaries "the Bulgarian Guttenberg". It was built in the middle of the 19th century. The stone foundations of the house are built on solid rock, and it allows a unique view to the town.
The Russian knyaz Alexey Nickolaevich Tseretelev lived in this house for some time. Today this beautiful house hosts a special exposition dedicated to the Bulgarian book-publishing.

The Georgiadi House
The Museum of National Liberation is now housed in the house of Dimiter Georgiadi (built 1846-48) , at 1 Tsanko Lavrenov Str., right next to the Hissar Kapia Gate.
With its perfect planning and workout, splendour and artistic level of decorative scheme, this imposing house stands among the first-rate models of the Bulgarian National Revival Period architecture.
It was once owned by the Plovdiv merchant Dimiter Georgiadi. It was ordered as a dowery present to his wife by her father, the eminent fabrics trader Georgi Kendindenoglu.
The building was erected for Georgiadi in 1846-48, by the famous master Hadji Georgi of Constantinople, who created many houses in the Old Town, among which the neighbouring house of Koyumdzhioglu (today's Ethnographic Museum).
