From November 9, 2026, at the Ethnographic Museum at 69 Slavyanska Street, you will see one of the locals' favorite exhibitions - "Burgas's Woman in the 1930s and 1940s". It shows the city's culture and reveals the spirit of old Burgas. Memories, photos, paintings, outfits, fashion accessories take us back to the first half of the last century. Even then, Burgas was open to the world, a cosmopolitan city, and Burgas women were extraordinary – beautiful, different, modern and free-thinking. A generalized image is not easy to create. That is why the exhibition presents the ordinary Burgas woman as a girl, wife and housewife, but also the famous, bright personality who conquered the wider world. Part of the exhibition are the fan and the heavy silk scarf with lavish hand embroidery of Dora Popova, who danced in the famous Parisian variety show "Folie Bergere". Burgas photographers captured spontaneous moments of life at that time - Burgas girls on the beach, in the Sea Garden, brides in elegant dresses on their wedding day, families walking along the pier and along Bogoridi Street, the famous Burgas beauty Vanya Morska. The exhibition will remain until the end of March 2027.
