This church is one of the oldest in the city. It has the roman imprint within its walls and galleries. Most of the bulgarians choose this church to get married and baptise their children. It's really a magical place.

It was this church that gave the city of Sofia its name in the 1300s during the Second Bulgarian Empire. This unassuming red brick building goes right back to Byzantine times and was founded in the 500s on top of the ancient city of Serdica’s necropolis, as well as an older church from a century before. When you visit you can see the remnants of this ancient church and the tombs that date back more than 1500 years. For two centuries after the Ottoman invasion this was a mosque, but was abandoned after one earthquake in the 1800s brought the minaret down and another killed the Imam’s two son’s.
