What rituals have accompanied the traditional Bulgarian wedding - this Saturday in the Burgas museum

On the eve of November 21 - Christian Family Day, the theme of the Saturday lecture at the Burgas Museum will be "The Family in the Folk Tradition". The guide in the Ethnographic Exposition Polina Ivanova will tell how the traditional Bulgarian wedding in the beginning of the 20th century went - from the wedding in the engagement period to the very climax. The preparation for the wedding began a week earlier and was related to various rituals that are not performed today - preparing several kinds of festive buns, performing the rituals of "sowing" and "grinding the bulgur", decorating wedding banners.

Welcome on November 16, 2019 from 11.30 am at the Ethnographic Museum on 69 Slavyanska St. We are looking forward to seeing you!
The entrance fee is preferential - for adults 2 BGN, and for students and pensioners - 1 BGN.
