Attractions in Varna

History Museum

Watching over the ruins of the Roman baths, Varna’s ivy-covered History Museum is itself an intriguing part of the city’s history which you can easily get by your car rental vehicle. Built in 1851 as the Belgian Embassy, it subsequently became a hotel, a prison and, under the communists, a Museum of the Revolution, before taking on its present role in 1990. Displays on the ground floor include photographs of the city from the 1920s.

Warship Druzki

Embedded in concrete outside the museum entrance is the warship Druzki, which torpedoed a Turkish cruiser during the First Balkan War in 1912. It’s possible to clamber around this revered relic. Inside the musty museum building itself is a collection of uniforms, model ships, naval insignia and displays on the Druzki, including an enormous torpedo, although there’s little labeling in English. We encourage you to visit this place by car rental Varna!

Cathedral of the Assumption of the Virgin

Standing a block north of pl Nezavisimost, this large cathedral was built between 1880 and 1886 by the architect Gencho Kunev, in celebration of the country’s recent independence from Ottoman rule. Topped with golden onion domes, which alleviate the somber, blocky appearance of its main body, the church is a much-cherished symbol of the city and you must surely visit it with your car rental vehicle!

Primorski Park

Established in 1878, this large and attractive green space overlooking the sea stretches for about 8km, and is said to be the largest of its kind in Europe. It's full of promenading families and old ladies knitting lace in summer, and there's always something going on. There are also several cafés near the entrance to the Aquarium and around the Summer Theatre. Taking advantage of your car rental vehicle you can get it in a moment!

Varna’s Dolphinarium

Get your car rental Varna and come to the north of the city to see amazing Dolphinarium. Apparently the only one of its kind in the Balkan regions, it presents 45-minute shows (at 10.30am, noon and 3.30pm) of dolphins performing various acrobatic tricks. Don’t forget this place of interest!
