About Obzor

Obzor has the longest beach in Bulgaria – 14 km., located at the foot of Stara Planina. Near the town in the mountains there is a mineral spring. The history of the city began more than 3,000 years ago. It was created by the Thracians and was called Naulohas. In the 1st millennium BC. Greek settlers founded the city of Heliopolis (“sunny city”). After its conquest by the Romans, in the 1st century BC, a temple of Jupiter was built and the city was named Theopolis (“city of God”). Remains of this temple are preserved in the city centre. Later, it was the summer residence of the Byzantine emperors. In the 70s of the twentieth century in the centre of the city was discovered a monumental three-nave basilica from the V century with a wall thickness of 2 meters and a length of 40 meters, which in the following years was destroyed by new construction. After a while the Bulgarian fortress Kozyak was built. During the Ottoman Empire, the settlement of Gözeken (“overview” in Turkish) emerged on this territory. It bears its current name since 1936. Since September 7, 1984, Obzor has had the status of a city.
