Heritage in the Depths

Bolgarija /

1779

The site of the submerged “st. Anastasius” Church near viden village, located on the edge of the koprinka Reservoir, presents a fascinating intersection of history, nature, and human impact. The church, originally built in the 19th century, was tragically submerged when the area was flooded to create the reservoir. Today, it stands as a reminder of both the cultural significance of the site and the powerful changes brought by human intervention, such as the construction of the dam.
