Cape Kaliakra is one of the most beautiful and historic Capes in Europe. Situated in the Southern Dobruja region of the northern Bulgarian Black Sea Coast, it is a favourite stop for tourists looking for pretty sights and interesting historic places to visit. The fortress was successively used by Tracians, Romans, Byzantines and Bulgarians. According to legends, the fortress was guarding the treasuries of Lyzimah, successor of Alexander the Great. Today there are quite many remains of those ancient settlements, which can be seen exhibited in a small museum. One can also read there a legend telling the story of several Bulgarian girls who chose to jump from the high cape into the sea but not to be captured and converted to Islam by the Turks. The Kaliakra cape was declared a protected area in 1941.
