The Klianti House is one of the oldest preserved residential buildings from the Bulgarian National Revival period, located within the Architectural and Historical Reserve “Old Plovdiv.” It dates back to the mid-18th century and is a representative example of the early asymmetrical Plovdiv house. Unique architectural elements can be seen here. The house is richly decorated with wall paintings, carved and painted ceilings, and beautiful alafrangas (an alafranga is a decorative niche in the wall, meaning “in the French manner”). Many of the decorative details are one of a kind and cannot be found in other residential buildings from the Revival period.
The research and restoration of the building began in 1971, went through several stages, and were completed in 2017, when it was transformed into a museum and declared “Building of the Year.”

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