Park-Museum Vladislav Varnenchik
Парк-музей „Владислав Варненчик“
A memorial park marking the Battle of Varna of 1444, centred on the Thracian-style tomb of the Polish-Hungarian king Vladislaus III.
In 1444, a crusader army fought the Ottoman forces here. The young King Vladislaus III was killed, and the battle shaped the fate of the Balkans for centuries. In the park are a symbolic tomb in the style of an ancient Thracian burial mound, a small museum, memorials donated by Poland and tree-lined walking paths. Admission is about €2.50. The park lies about 5 km northwest of the city centre and is reachable by bus, making it a good choice for visitors interested in medieval history.
