Located in the Kaylaka Park a few kilometers away from Pleven, Storgosia is ancient fortress dating back to the Roman era and containing the ruins of towers, gates, residential houses, a public storehouse and a large church believed to be constructed around the 4th century. Originally built as a road stop, it became a fortress to protect itself from raids and attacks.
The fortress existed until the end of the 6th century, when the settlement of the Slavs apparently led to its abandonment and during the rule of the Ottoman Empire the fortress was practically destroyed (probably in the 16th century), so that the stones could be used for the construction of a wall around the Turkish barracks in Pleven.
Archaeological excavations have been carried out on the site and a few basic structures of buildings can be seen.
References:The first written record of church in Danmark locality date back to the year 1291. Close to the church are several stones with a Christian text and cross inscribed. The oldest parts of the present red-brick church are from the 1300s. In the late 1400s the church was enlarged to the appearance it has today. The church has been modified both internally and externally several times, among other things after the fires in 1699 and 1889. There are lot of well-preserved mural paintings in the walls.
