Landmarks and tourism

Kladorub lies on the foundations of an ancient settlement - Konbustika (Conbustica), marked on a Roman road map. On this place there are remains of an ancient camp of Roman auxiliary troops - a stone fortification with rectangular shape and an area over 2 hectares. The findings of imported Roman pottery and metal objects suggest that this happened in the first century. After the Dacian wars of Emperor Trayan, the military unit camping at this location has been moved, and the fort was converted into a civilian fortified settlement. The site is located east of the modern village.

At about 10 km northwest of Kladorub is located the Rabisha lake, which is the largest inland lake in the country and a great place for camping, fishing and water sports.

The region can also visit:

Magura cave, located about 6 km north-west. The cave is one of the most beautiful in the country, a part of the Hundred national tourist sites. It was carved from a river. It occupies over 30 000 sq m of area and the total length of the galleries found so far is about 2500 m.

Belogradchik Rocks - one of the most famous rock formations in Bulgaria, also part of the Hundred national tourist sites. The rocks are located 18 km southeast of Rabisha.

Holy Trinity Rakovishki monastery, which is located 26 km to the northwest. Founded in 10-11 century, after the fall of Bulgaria under Ottoman rule the monastery declined. It was restored in the 17th century by St. Pimen of Sofia, but in the late 18th century, was destroyed. Currently it is restored and operating.
