Naval Museum, Varna
Военноморски музей
One of Bulgaria's oldest military museums, with torpedo boats, submarine sections and naval guns on display outdoors, its courtyard right by the sea.
The museum is at the southern end of the Sea Garden. Indoor exhibits tell the story of the Bulgarian navy and Black Sea shipping. The outdoor display includes artillery, missiles, helicopters and the famous torpedo boat 'Drazki'. Admission is about €5. Parts of the museum close on weekends, and a visit takes about 1 hour. Right outside is the seaside promenade and the Central Beach, so it fits well into a walking route with the Roman Baths and the Sea Garden.
Opening hours
Approx. 10:00–18:00 (closed weekends in winter; check official site)
