St.
Archangel Michael Church
St.Archangel Michael Church is the oldest church
in the town and is a monument of national significance dating back to
the Middle Ages. The wood-carved altar was made by the Tryavna craftsmen
Papa Vitan, Simeon Koev and Dyado Doncho. The bishop's throne is one of
the finest examples of the Tryavna woodcarving school. The church is home
to the Royal Cross made of boxwood on which 12 evangelical scenes have
been carved up.
