With a solemn ceremony on October 11, 2022, the regional governor of the Lovech Region, Svetoslav Slavchev, handed the contract and the keys to His Eminence Metropolitan Gavriil of Lovech to the building of the former Tannery Technical College in the town of Lovech.

The building was provided two years ago by the government of the Republic of Bulgaria for the new general education school called, “St. Sedmochiselnitsi”, under the auspices of the Lovich diocese of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church.
