 Medieval / Middle Ages, cultural heritage / national heritage, interesting place, UNESCO World Heritage Site, 100 Tourist Sites of Bulgaria, 13th century construction, tourist attraction, cave church/monastery

A group of monolithic churches, chapels and monasteries hewn out of solid rock near the village of Ivanovo, 20 km south of Ruse, on the high rocky banks of the Rusenski Lom, 32 m above the river. The complex is noted for its beautiful and well-preserved medieval frescoes.
The murals preserved today are the reason for the Ivanovo Rock Churches to be included in the UNESCO list of world cultural and natural heritage under number 45 and to be one of the 9 such sites in Bulgaria. A popular tourist attraction from the 100 National Tourist Sites under number 50a.
