Salt Museum Pomorie
It opened its doors on 7 September 2002.
The only salt museum not only in Bulgaria but for the whole Eastern Europe is located
in the town of Pomorie.
O It is dedicated to the production of salt through solar evaporation of seawater.
O The museum showcases the ancient Alchialos method for salt production.
O According to historic sources the salt-pans in the region of Pomorie existed even before the establishment of the town (about the 5th century BC).
O In ancient times salt was extremely valuable – rare and expensive – and for this reason it was sometimes called “white gold”.
The Salt Museum in Pomorie is a specialized outdoor museum - visitors may see both the museum building and the 20 decares of salt-pans adjacent to the museum, where salt is still being produced.
O The salt-pans are a number of basins separated from one another by wood and dirt embankments.
O Salt is produced there utilizing the same technology that was used сеnturies ago.
The museum exposition in the building represents the development of the ancient salt-production technology.
Here you can see a rich collection of photographs from the beginning of the 20th century and copies of documents form the period 15th - 19th century, which depict the production and trade in salt in the Bulgarian lands.
Some of the most interesting exhibits in the collection are authentic salt-working tools such was wooden salt-working barrows, rakes, etc.
