The Hindlian House-Museum The Hindlian House is sharing a yard with the Balabanov House.
Its owner, the famous Bulgarian trader of Armenian origin Stepan Hindlian built that imposing house as the perfect eclectic symbol of "the East meeting the West" architecture and furniture style.
He travelled north and south and the house bears the marks of various cultural influences, yet radiating the dignity of the owners' Bulgarian spirit. The niches in the walls (the so called "alaphrangas") feature landscapes of beautiful cities the famous trader visited himself (the very surname Hindlian derives from "Hindi"/India, implying that even his ancestors used to cross the world far and wide).
The house has been built by unknown masters in 1835-1840. It is well-known for its art decorations, which include many well-preserved original frescoes. Currently it hosts an exposition of the Revival Period urban life style - in perfect harmony with the surrounding interior, which reperesents the authentic atmosphere of that period.
It was restored in 1974. Being a national monument of culture, it currently hosts "The Exposition of the Revival Period Urban Life-style" - in perfect harmony with the surrounding interior, which reperesents the authentic atmosphere of that period.

The Lamartine House-Museum The house of Georgi Mavridi (today's Lamartine House-Museum)is situated at 19 Knyaz Tseretelev Str. The house was built in 1829 at a corner-spot of three streets, with difference in the levels.
While passing through Bulgaria in 1838, the great French poet Alphonse de Lamartine spent only three days in the house of Georgi Mavridi but that was quite enough for the house to be called more often after Lamartine's name rather than its real owner's. Today the house-museum hosts an exposition of photo albums, sculpture of the poet, and the map with Lamartine's route through Bulgaria.
