Mezek (Bulgarian: Мезек) is a village in southeastern Bulgaria, part of Svilengrad municipality,
Haskovo Province. It lies at the foot of the eastern Rhodope Mountains, just north of the Bulgaria–
Greece border and not far west of the Bulgaria–Turkey border. Mezek is famous for the well-
preserved medieval Mezek Fortress (Neoutzikon - Νεούτζικον) and its two ancient Thracian beehive
tombs, the Mezek and Sheynovets tombs. The village is also well known for its own winery and the
Mezzek brand of Bulgarian wine.

The Mezek Fortress, 6.5 decares (6,500 square metres) in area, is claimed to be among the best
preserved Bulgarian medieval castles. It dates to the 11th century. Along with the Thracian tombs, it
was studied by a team under archaeologist Bogdan Filov in 1931–1932. The castle has nine towers,
five of which lie at the vulnerable south wall. The Mezek Fortress was built out of stone, with two
decorative lines of bricks on the outside. It suffered some destruction around 1900, when stones
from the fortress were used for the construction of Ottoman barracks in Svilengrad.

The Mezek Thracian tomb dates to the 4th century BC. It is a large, elongated tomb that includes a
covered passage of 20.65 metres (67.7 ft), two rectangular antechambers of different size and a
round burial chamber with a stone sarcophagus. The number of burials of noble Thracians in the
tomb was no less than four. Gold, silver, bronze, iron and glass items and pottery discovered in the
tomb are today displayed in the National Archaeological Museum in Sofia.
