The mobile exhibition "Secrets and Riddles from Heraclea Sintica, Time Travel" will open on May 26 at Slovakia's National Museum. It will remain in Bratislava until the end of July, the director of the museum in the town of Petrich, Katya Stoyanova, told BTA.
The exhibition will also be presented with a lecture by Prof. Lyudmil Vagalinski, head of the excavations in the ancient city.

The collection has already been visiting Budapest and Warsaw since the beginning of the year. It will participate in the cultural festival "Olymp" in Dion, Greece, where Bulgaria is an official partner, and will visit the European Parliament from December 2 to 5, 2025.

The copies of artifacts from the ancient city of Heraclea Sintica, located in Southwestern Bulgaria near Petrich, were created under a project by the Ministry of Culture. 3D copies of the artifacts, which are also part of the mobile exhibition, are sensitively accessible for blind visitors.
