What’s the most interesting news around the city nowadays? It’s the recently found by Bulgarian archaeologists sarcophagus containing the bones of John the Baptist. The box for relics, was found embedded in an altar at the ruins of a fifth-century monastery on Sveti Ivan (which means St. John) – small Black Sea island close to Sozopol.
Few days ago, the relics (part of an arm bone, a skull bone, and a tooth) were transferred to St. George Church in Sozopol downtown where they were laid in state.
