In its latest digital section “Buildings Tell a Story”, the Regional History Museum – Sofia presents the stories of iconic buildings in the center of the Bulgarian capital city, as well as of the people who once lived in them. The video initiative is part of the “KLaDA-BG” project.


“In some of the videos you can hear and see the heirs of the owners of the houses or their architects. Each is dedicated to a different building, accompanied by a personal story and facts that the museum team has discovered in recent years,” the team says.


The clips can be viewed on the museum’s YouTube channel. The premiere of the next video will take place today and it will tell the story of the Central Sofia Halls building.
