The relics of Saint Euthymius of Tarnovo, the last head of the Bulgarian church before the fall of the country under Ottoman rule in the 14th century, are on display in Bachkovo Monastery. The occasion is the decision of the Holy Synod for a new church holiday in the Orthodox calendar - "Glorification of the relics of Saint Euthymius, Patriarch of Tarnovo", celebrated on October 22.
