Description


Nicopolis ad Nestum

Nicopolis ad Nestum or Nicopolis ad Mestum is a ruined Roman town of the province of Thracia (Thrace) near to the modern village of Garmen on the left bank of the Mesta river, in Garmen Municipality, Bulgaria. Although "ad Nestum" is the more commonly used alternative, "ad Mestum" (which is what appears, in Greek, on the coins of the city) is the correct form of the name during the Roman period.
