House-Museum Neofit Rilski

This museum is dedicated to the prominent Bulgarian renaissance enlightener Neofit Rilski. The display has been arranged in his birth-place house, located right in the old town of Bansko, opposite of the Holy Trinity Church and its impressive tall belfry. The house is also known as Beninata Kashta / the House of the Benin Family as the father of Neofit Rilski - priest Peter descended from the well-known local Benin family. The house was converted into a museum in 1981. It is included in the 100 National Tourist Sights of Bulgaria.
