Asen’s Fortress

Asen's Fortress, identified by some researchers as Petrich, is a medieval fortress in the Bulgarian Rhodope Mountains, 2 to 3 kilometres south of the town of Asenovgrad, on a high rocky ridge on the left bank of the Asenitsa River. Asen's Fortress is 279 metres above sea level. The only preserved building is Saint Mary of Petrich church, a remarkable example of medieval religious architecture in Bulgaria.
