All that Circus - an exhibition recalls the golden times of the Bulgarian circus

Photo: Sofia's Regional History Museum

A model of the emblematic building of the Sofia State Circus, which generations of Bulgarians no longer remember because it was destroyed in a fire exactly 40 years ago, is placed in the center. 

This is also the reason for the current exhibition, which will remain until the end of September in the building of the Regional Museum of History in Sofia. 

Its purpose is to recall the names and work of the authors who created this emblematic building for Sofia in the 1970s, as their work has been undeservedly forgotten.
