Krastyo Krastev

Dr. Krastyo Krastev is the first Bulgarian professional literary critic and literary historian after the Liberation. He is a writer, publicist, translator, public figure and participant in the "Thought" literary circle. He also gained fame as a critic of established writers such as Ivan Vazov and Lyuben Karavelov. And in the photo is a view of Cherni vrah with Aleko Konstantinov and a number of other capital intellectuals.

Family brand "Svetulka"

We carry our love for our grandparents everywhere with us, both on holidays and on weekdays. That's why in the restaurant "Manastirska Magernitsa" we also offer clothes produced by the family brand "Svetulka". ([Link](https://svetulka.eu/))They have dedicated themselves to the mission of weaving Bulgarian roots into everyone's daily life, offering modern clothes made of natural materials with embroidered authentic Bulgarian embroidery. Each garment is embroidered with attention to detail and shipped with an explanation of what the embroidered embroidery symbolizes. Driven by love for the native, we take our work not as a business, but as a mission. That's why we help other like-minded people of the same breed. We believe this is how community is built.

The icon of St. Mina

This almost charred icon of St. Mina is very special to us. Years ago, a big fire broke out in the restaurant, which threatened to destroy a historic building - home of the legendary Dr. Krastyo Krastev and currently a home of Bulgarian traditions and good taste. The fire was controlled with difficulty. But after the flames were extinguished, it was very clear how the elements began to consume the icon of St. She passed, but stopped. We believe that on that hellish day St. Mina has protected us. To this day, this icon remains intact for us after the fire. We have not restored it to remind us of its strength and what protects us from the elements in life - St. Mina is the patron saint of the family.

The Circle of Thought - Pencho Slaveykov, Peyo Yavorov, Petko Todorov,

Under this dogwood gathered the brilliant conditions of the literary circle "Thought", in which the great Peyo Yavorov was a member, as well as Dr. Krastyo Krastev, who lived in this house. Perhaps it was here that the poet Yavorov first read the poem Two Beautiful Eyes to his like-minded people...vTwo beautiful eyes. The soul of a child in two beautiful eyes; - music - rays of light.2 They never want and promise not... My soul is praying, child of God,my soul is pray ing! Feelings and straying will throw tomorrow over them the veil of shame and sin again. The veil of shame and sin again - they will not throw over them passions and straying. My soul is praying, child of God, my soul is praying... They never want and promise not! - Two beautiful eyes. Music, rays of light in two beautiful eyes. The soul of a child...
