Monastery of Kapinovo

The "St. Nikola" Monastery of Kapinovo lies at the foot of the Elena Balkan, near the Vesselina river. This is one of the biggest monasteries in Bulgaria and is an interesting monument of architecture from the period of Bulgarian National Revival. In the east wall of the monastery, there is an inscription indicating that the monastery was built in 1272. During the Turkish yoke, the monastery was destroyed and later restored several times. In 1835 masters from the town of Dryanovo reconstructed the monastery church, and Papa Vitan - a master from Tryavna, painted the big icons of the iconostasis. The whole west wall of the church represents scenes of the Doomsday and is one of the richest compositions in Bulgaria. It was painted by Joan Pavlovich, an artist from Razgrad.

In 1856, the old walls of the monastery were destroyed and the two brothers Horozov from Elena constructed massive two-storied residential buildings. The exterior is 8m high, 1.5m thick and made of stone, and this makes the monastery imposing.

When restoring the monastery in 1856 paintings of the two brothers St. St. Cyril and Methodius were put up above the entrance door. An unknown artist painted the interior walls in the chapel, built in 1864. Among his paintings are portraits of Famous Bulgarian spiritual and literature activist - Ivan Rilski, Theodosii Tarnovski, Patriah Evtimii, and Ilarion Maglenski. The strongest impression makes the portrait of the two brothers Horozovi. As far back as the beginning of the Bulgarian national revival, the monastery served as a cultural center. In 1794, father superior of the monastery became Pope Stoiko Vladislavov, later known as Episcopate Sofronii Vrachanski. He was a custodian to the transcript of History of Slavic Bulgarians, from Paisii Hilendaski. In the close proximity of the monastery there is a deep pool, a favourite place for bathing and bivouacing in the hot summer days.
