On 15th of August, the Bulgarian Orthodox church celebrates the Assumption of Virgin Mary. The holiday will be marked by festive liturgies across the country. Processions with the icon of the Mother of God will take place in many places. The Assumption of Mary is the holiday of the patron saint of Troyan monastery in Northern Bulgaria and Bachkovo monastery in Southern Bulgaria.

Many people flock to the monasteries to worship Virgin Mary and pray for health. Worships began on 14th of August. His Holiness the Bulgarian Patriarch Neophyte heads the festive liturgy in Troyan Monastery, where the miraculous icon “St. Mary Troeruchitsa” (Three-handed Virgin Mary) is stored. Later, the icon will be carried in a temple procession.
