Koprivshtitsa is situated in a picturesque valley, situated along the river Topolnitsa, in a mountainous area, the central part of "Sredna Gora".
Under Ottoman rule
Due to the privileges enjoyed by Koprivshtitsa, they preserved their well-being after the fall of Bulgaria under the Ottoman rule. The riches of the town attracted the Kurdjali, which in the years 1793, 1804 and 1809, they robbed it and burned away its inhabitants, leaving only the Pavlikian house from the first settlement.
During the 1793 attack, Koprivshtitsa refugees were scattered from Plovdiv to Edirne and Dimotika. Thanks to their patriotism, their ingenuity, and hard work, Koprivshtits are able to revive the city and preserve its magical charm even today.
