Discovery
Deikov Brothers holding the treasure

It was accidentally discovered on 8 December 1949 by three brothers, Pavel, Petko, and Michail Deikov, who worked together at the region of “Merul” tile factory near the railway station of the town of Panagyurishte, Bulgaria.[2] At the time of its discovery it was considered "the richest treasure to have been unearthed in Europe since World War II.".[3]

Exhibitions around the world and replicas

As one of the best known surviving artefacts of Thracian culture, the treasure has been displayed at various museums around the world.[4][5][6][7][8] The treasure is the centerpiece of the Thracian art collection of the Plovdiv Regional Historical Museum, the National Museum of History in Sofia, and the History Museum in Panagyurishte.[9] There are three replica sets, which are displayed in the museums in Panagyurishte, Sofia and Plovdiv, when the authentic treasure is lent for exhibitions abroad.[10]
