While not as ornate as most of the other churches in Sofia, this gem has a lot to offer. Definitely check out the necropolis.
Ancient church. There's a crypt that is full with history. One of Sofia most visited place.
A church with very rich history from Roman times, and very interesting archaeological exhibit under the church from 2-5 centuries.
The church isn't my favorite in town but I love the crypt.
The Saint Sofia Church is simply different from all the other churches you can visit in Sofia. It is the second oldest church in the capital and if you are visiting Bulgaria take time to see it.
One of the symbols of Sofia. It's recommended to be visited by every visitor of Bulgarian capital.
One of the oldest rebuilt churches of Sofia, with history in it (first necropolis, then church, later mosque and now church again) Good early medieval necropolis under it worth to visit.
To my knowledge the second oldest church in Sofia. Its history goes back to the 4th century AD or earlier and it has had its ups and downs quite a lot. Well preserved structurally (red brick) however none of the murals have been preserved so its interior struck me as rather plain and somber in contrast to the Eastern Orthodox tradition.
Anyway it is a key part of Sofia's history and definitely worth a visit. Do not miss the necropolis underneath - an interesting archaeological site.
Amazing historical place in Sofia. An old church which is a must to see when you are in Sofia.
Nice brick structure there is a beautiful history take a free tour, guide will explain everything
The building has an interesting history, but I don't like the fact that as a church it turned commercial. I've been feeling unwelcome there on several occasions. Curious detail - look up into the trees in front of the main entrance to find something very unusual.
