Northern (N): Bulgaria (NG). Religion in Bulgaria

A file of correspondence and press extracts on religion in Bulgaria. The file contains a description of the celebration of Easter in Sofia, noting the huge numbers of young people attending the Easter Vigil service on the night before Easter Sunday and the view that it was a passive protest against the government. Other documents include a Bulgarian press article lamenting the superstitious views still held in rural areas and the success of religious propaganda compared with atheist material; and notification that the Troian Monastery was opening a seminary for new monks.
