CENTRAL MILITARY CLUB
7 Tzar Osvoboditel Blvd.
The Central Military Club is among Sofia's cultural icons, one of the first monumental public buildings after the Independance. It has hosted many events such as concerts, exhibitions, meetings, theatre performances, ceremonies and others. The construction of the club started in 1985. Conceived and built in Neorenaissance style, following the projects of the famous Czech architect Antonin Kolar, the building has been completed by the Bulgarian architect Nikola Lazarov and is representative of the post-Independence architecture in Bulgaria. It has three floors with hall distribution typical of the club buildings from the end of 19th century. Today the Central Military Club combines in a wonderful way the classic atmosphere from the start of the 20th century with modern functionality, boasting a variety of cultural, informational and educational activities.
