Navy Church

St. Nicholas Seamen Church, also known as the Navy Church, was founded in 1865. Until the anti-Greek upheavals of the early 20th century, the temple was Greek, but on July 4, 1906, it was occupied by activists of the Bulgarian patriotic movement and Bulgarian priests began to serve. It was only in 1961 that the inner walls of the temple were painted.

Hayrie Mosque

Located in the old part of the city, the mosque with the madrasah next to it was built by Deliver Pasha. Above the entrance door of the mosque is a memorial plaque, from which we read that the mosque was rebuilt in its original way in 1926 by the Islamic community in Varna.
