Pravets

It shares a complex-looking building with the town library and other institutions. The collection includes Thracian, Roman and Medieval artifacts from digs in the area, icons dating back as far as the 16th century, and clothing and everyday life items from the 19th and early 20th centuries. The museum also runs the Todor Zhivkov House Museum Complex, hence the package ticket option.

The small house built by Zhivkov's grandparents in the 19th century was turned into a museum in 1974 and hosts a small ethnographic exhibition. A modern building was built next to it to serve as a "greeting hall" for entertaining foreign and domestic dignitaries and now hosts a museum exhibition about Zhivkov's life, a hall dedicated to Pravetz computers, and a collection of the 239 gifts that Zhivkov has received in his role as the head of state of Bulgaria from foreign delegations from all over the world (ranging from works of folk art to very expensive kitsch).

A full-height statue of Todor Zhivkov by the side of the road. Created in the 1970s by Professor Sekul Krumov, the statue gathered dust in the archives of the Union of Bulgarian Artists until... 2001, when it was installed in its current location at the request of the local municipality. The dedication ceremony was attended by Georgi Parvanov, at the time the leader of the Bulgarian Socialist Party and later the third President of Bulgaria (2002-2012).
