Nikopolis ad Istrum

Nikopolis ad Istrum

Nikopolis ad Istrum is a Roman and an early Byzantian town founded in 101-106 AD by the Roman emperor Trajan to honour the victories over the Daci tribes, which lived in the lands of today’s Romania. The ruins of that town are situated near the village of Nikup, close to the town of Veliko Turnovo, capital of the Second Bulgarian State during the Middle Ages, and one of the most picturesque Bulgarian towns, which can be a starting point to the place.
