Retro Museum

Inside this museum, visitors are

afforded the opportunity to observe many items and common objects that hail from 1945-1989. Many were commonplace in Bulgarian households. The museum comprises about 4,000 square meters and gives visitors a realistic account of life in communist-era

Bulgaria.

In addition to Bulgarian items, there are also cosmetics from

Poland

, cars from the former Soviet Union, technical appliances from East-

Germany

, and cigarettes from the former nation of Yugoslavia. A major part of the collection is devoted to cars, some are true rarities such as limousines that belonged to Politburo members of the Bulgarian Communist Party.

The entire collection belongs to businessman Tsvetan Atanasov, who opened the museum to the public in 2015.
