Pomorie- small resort town on the peninsula. The city is very old, he was founded in the V century to our era, founded the Greeks from the nearby Sozopol. The city was ruled by Rome, then Byzantium, Turks. The city attacked countless times of Goths, Slavs, Avarov, Bulgarians. The city is wearing his current name since 1934 (there used to be anchialyos or anchioal). By the way, in the 20s of the last century, in Pomorie, the largest of the Russian emigrant Cossack villages was organized - 130 people. True, after 10 years, only 20 years left. As in view of these all events, it can be assumed, in the city there are many vintage architectural structures to pay attention to.
Thracian tomb
There is this monument to the West from the center of Pomorie, not far from the Pomorie-Burgas road route, in the territory of Necropolis. Looking at the tomb resembles a hill. The construction of the tomb belongs to 2-3 centresses. Once it was the mausoleum of a local rich family, as well as a place for magical pagan rituals. The tomb consists of a corridor (drromos) at 22 meters and a circular shape chamber with a diameter of 11 meters. In the height of the tomb of the brick and stone - 5.5 meters. The set of tomb reminds some kind of mushroom with a hollow column in the middle (the diameter of the column is 3.5 meters). Moreover, the top of this column expands, dismantle into the outer wall. Inside the column was once a twisted staircase made of stone, which led to the surface of the tomb. Near this construction, you can see five niches located in a circle - they put urns with the remains of the deceased. Scientists assure that this construction was decorated with painting, but we can only see particles of green plaster. This is the only similar design on the Balkan Peninsula. The mystery of the tomb is not solved so far, and architects from all countries draw inspiration in a unique building.
Monastery St. George
This is an Orthodox male monastery acting. When it was built - it is unknown for some reason. It is assumed somewhere in the early 19th century. Naturally, the monastery surround the legends. Like, the miraculous source cured Turkish Bay (leader, mean), Selima, who visited here in the 18th century. Moreover, one of the subjects of Selima before that was a dream, where he saw this incredible source. And after the source, the employee began to dream of George Victorious. The dreams completely suffocated to the worker and he went to search for the place and, of course, found him. And at the same time found a marble bas-relief with the image of St. George near. Selim heard about this story and also went there for healing. From happiness, Selim and his family decided to adopt Christianity, and where there was a source, Selim ordered to build a chapel, which "turned" into the monastery. Also, the ruler gave all his lands to the monastery and became the first abbot himself. Bas-relief is still being seen in the monastery. As well as the miraculous icon of St. George the Victorious. This building is located on Manastirsk Street.
Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin
The temple was built in 1890, and a year later the church was consecrated. Icons are written by Russian icon painters in a classic style. The architect of the temple laid a lot of tangent of this church, but after his death, many plans remained unfinished. That is, according to the plan, the temple should be with a bulk dome, but the dome to the pore forces is flat. After the death of the main architect, the church was completed and changed. Changed the altar, decorated the gate of the thread, added icons, copies of the ancient Russian icons. The temple attracts many tourists annually. Since 2004, the Church is held in the Church, the festival of Orthodox singing, which is called "The Most Holy Mother of God - is worthy."
