Thracian era – Antiquity

Nebet Tepe

The oldest part of the city — here the Thracian settlement of Eumolpias was founded, later the acropolis of Philippopolis. Walls and towers survive from the 4th c. BC (cyclopean masonry), a 6th-c. Byzantine postern tunnel (under Justinian) and a large cistern. The site reopened to visitors in 2025 after restoration.
