Built in 1863 in the spirit of European classicism, the house of Plovdiv merchant and public figure Nikola Nedkovich impresses with its richly decorated façade and a solemn four-column portico. On the first floor, the rooms are symmetrically arranged on both sides of a spacious central hall (hayet). The second floor is stylistically distinguished by its decorative ornamentation.
The exhibition in the house showcases the interior layout typical of wealthy Plovdiv homes from the 19th century and includes furniture and personal belongings of the Nedkovich family. Visitors can also see examples of the two main carpet-weaving schools in Bulgaria – the Chiprovtsi and Kotel schools. Particularly impressive are the large Kotel carpets, specially commissioned for this house, as well as exquisite fabrics made of hand-woven kenar and delicate women’s undergarments.

Day for free visit: Every first Thursday of the month for students and retired people.
