Veliko Tarnovo to apply for European Heritage Label

The Municipal Council in Veliko Tarnovo has adopted a strategy aimed at affirming the town’s image as a historical and spiritual capital of Bulgaria that strengthens and promotes the national identity as an integral part of the European and world achievements of civilization. In 2021 Veliko Tarnovo will apply for the European Heritage Label in coordination with the Ministry of Culture. Veliko Tarnovo’s significance as one of the five sacred Eastern Orthodox towns is among the main arguments for its candidacy. In 2023, Veliko Tarnovo Municipality will apply to host UNESCO’s World Book Capital initiative.
