Nesebar is an ancient town located on a rocky peninsula that is over 2,700 feet long and 985 feet wide, connected to the mainland by a slender causeway. The town has existed for more than 1,000 years and prominently showcases its rich history through preserved architectural monuments from all its periods. Among them are the remains from Bulgarian and Byzantine churches, 18th and 19th-century homes, and Roman and medieval walls. It has such significant historical value that in 1956 is was declared a museum-town – an archaeological and architectural reserve. The town is most proud of its churches, which include the Old Metropolitan Church and the Church of St. Sofia.
