Alexander Nevsky Abbey - Virtual Tour 360°

Alexander Nevski was made by a decision of the National Constituent Assembly in 1879 convened in the old capital Veliko Tarnovo.

The president of the Assembly period the exarch Antim I and the co-president Petko Karavelov, brother of the poet Lyuben Karavelov.

Another proposal was made during the session, that of Dr. Peter Beron.

Dr. Peter Beron's proposal was overturned by members of parliament while Karavelov's was adopted by acclamation.

In 1880 the Second Ordinary National Assembly at the request of His Highness Prince Alexander Battenberg decided that the memorial cathedral would be erected in Sofia, the new capital of the Bulgarians, instead of Tarnovo as previously decided by the Constituent Assembly.

The proposal was passed on to the National Assembly by Petko Karavelov, now Prime Minister.
