We have the honor to invite you to the fourth edition of Festival of Antique Heritage “Serdica is my Rome” which will be held in Bulgaria’s capital city – Sofia. We want to promote the Antique legacy of our capital and to draw attention towards the restoration of historical sites: “The West Gate of Serdica” and “Antique cultural and communication complex “Serdica”.

We are going to prepare an interesting program, one that will represent the Antique history of Serdica to the citizens and the guests of the capital, especially the time around the reign of Emperor Constantius II - the  emperor  who managed to unite the Roman Empire before its separation to the Western and the Eastern court. The adoption of Christianity trough the “Edict of Toleration” by Emperor Galerius and “The Council of Serdica”, that took place in our city, will also be parts of the event, alongside representations of the culture, the traditions and the religion of both the Romans and the barbarian tribes, native to our lands in ancient times.

Reenacting associations from Bulgaria and abroad will take part.

This project is funded by the “Culture 2024” program of Municipality of Sofia.
