The artefacts found near Bdintzi are on display in the community center of the nearby Vladimirovo village.
The village has received its modern name back in 1934. It was named after the Bdin Infantry Regiment's deeds of valour during the WWI. On the border between the villages of Bdintzi and Vratarite rises a beautiful monument dedicated to the soldiers who lost their lives in the First Balkan, the Second Balkan wars and WWI. It took two years to build the memorial with private donations from the locals.
