Creation

st. Stephen's Church or so on. "New Metropolis" was built in the period XI-XIII centuries. In the 16th century it was extended to the west, and in the 18th century the porch was added. During its construction, architectural elements were also used - cornices, capitals, reliefs from previously destroyed Christian buildings.

initially, a church with the name of St. Stephen was located on the tip of the Nessebar peninsula, but after the "New Metropolis" fell into the sea, which until then had the Blessed Virgin as its patron, it became the successor of the Saint's name.

murals

the temple is richly painted with very well-preserved murals. More than 1,000 figures are depicted in 258 compositions: "The Virgin with the Christ Child on a throne", the hymn of the Virgin "For you rejoices...", "Assumption of the Virgin", "Introduction of the Virgin into the temple".

the peculiarities of the rendering style allow to distinguish the hand of three masters: two worked in the eastern part of the nave, and the third - in the western. At the beginning of the 18th century, the "Last Judgment" scene was painted on the eastern wall of the vestibule in a traditional iconography of the time.
