Thracian Tomb of Kazanlak

It was built sometime in the late 4th century BC. This tomb is known for the remarkable wall paintings covering the walls of the corridor and the dome ceiling. The murals depict scenes from the life of the Thracian ruler buried inside the tomb.Tomb of Seuthes III
20 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedWhat is known as the “Valley of the Thracian Kings” is where the rulers of the ancient Thracian tribes were buried with their horses and items they might need in the afterlife. The Golyama Kosmatka tomb near Kazanlak belonged to the Thracian Tsar Seuthes III. The ruler’s golden crown, a golden kilix (a wine glass), knee-pads and a helmet were discovered there.
