אנדרטת ההצלה
באביב 1943 נמנע גירושם של יותר מ-48,000 מיהודי בולגריה למחנות ההשמדה הנאציים הודות למאבקם של חברי פרלמנט, מנהיגי הכנסייה האורתודוקסית הבולגרית, אישי ציבור, אנשי רוח ואחרים.
אנדרטה זו מוקמת להנצחת מבצע ההצלה יוצא הדופן ולזכרם של יותר מ-11,000 יהודים שחיו בצפון יוון ובשטחי יוגוסלביה לשעבר תחת שלטון בולגריה, אשר נרצחו במחנה ההשמדה טרבלינקה.

The Monument of Salvation
In the Spring of 1948, thanks to the efforts of members of the Parliament, leaders of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church, public figures, intellectuals and others, the deportation the Nazi death camps and the physical annihilation of more than 45,000 Bulgarian Jews was prevented.
We recall this outstanding rescue and remember more than 11,000 Jews from both Northern Greece and parts of ex-Yugoslavia, under Bulgarian administration, who were deported and murdered in the Treblinka death camp.
