Among the exhibits are the marshal's baton of the Russian diplomat Count Nikolay Ignatiev; the revolver of the legendary Bulgarian teacher and revolutionary Rayna Knyaginia; the rifle of revolutionary Georgi Benkovski; The Proclamation of the April Uprising and other authentic documents that shed light on Benkovski's life before he became one of the organisers of the Bulgarian anti-Ottoman April Uprising of 1876, which was a prelude to the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-1878, thanks to which Bulgaria was liberated. 

"Benkovski's rifle was a Winchester model 1866, it was the weapon he used to confront the enormous military and administrative power of the Ottoman Empire," says Tihomir Tsurov, an expert at the cultural institution. - The revolutionary believed so passionately in Bulgarian independence that his faith was contagious, drawing thousands of people into a struggle that would have seemed doomed had it not been for his fervour and courage.

Georgi Benkovski is a symbol of the rebellious spirit of the Bulgarian people. Some would say that he lived in rebellious times, became one of the apostles of freedom, but did not live to see the liberation of Bulgaria. But is this really true? On the contrary, Georgi Benkovski had a vision of Bulgarian independence, he knew what he was fighting for, and this fuelled his great passion and enthusiasm".
