The 19th national archaeological exhibition Bulgarian Archaeology 2025 will open at the National Archaeological Museum in Sofia on February 12, 2026, the hosts said on Thursday. The exhibition will be opened by the Director of the National Archaeological Institute with Museum of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (NAIM-BAS) Hristo Popov.

Traditionally, the exhibition presents archaeological discoveries from the previous year and opens around Bulgarian Archaeologist Day, observed on February 14 since 1971. The tradition began on the initiative of the Archaeological Institute with Museum at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, now the National Archaeological Institute with Museum at BAS. For the past 20 years, Bulgarian Archaeologist Day has also been closely linked to the annual exhibitions, through which NAIM-BAS showcases the previous year’s archaeological discoveries.
