Overview

Sofia is a city with an ancient history: one of the three most ancient cities in Europe. The city was part of the Roman Empire, part of the Bulgarian Empire, part of East Roman Empire. After 14 c. the city was part of the Ottoman Empire . Sofia became the new capital of Bulgaria in 1879. (After the Liberation of Bulgaria from the Ottoman Empire). In that city Bulgarians, Turks, Jews and other lived together for hundreds of years. The center of Sofia, where the two main streets of ancient Serdika "Cardo Maximus" and "Decumanus Maximus" are crossing, is part of the Historical and Archeological Reserve "Serdika - Sredets".
The town of Serdika or Serdnopolis was founded 2,000 years BC by the Thracian tribe Serdi, who settled in the region around the hot mineral springs. In the 1st century AD the town was conquered by the Romans, who appreciated the important and strategic location and the mineral springs.
