Iglesia de Boyana
Boyana Church is a medieval Bulgarian Orthodox church and UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979, located on the outskirts of Sofia in the Boyana quarter. The church consists of three buildings constructed in the 10th, 13th, and 19th centuries. It is world-famous for its 13th-century frescoes, painted in 1259, which are considered among the finest examples of medieval Eastern European art and precursors to the Italian Renaissance. The 89 scenes depicting 240 human figures showcase remarkable realism and emotional depth that was revolutionary for their time.
