Koprivshtitsa straggles along either side of the River Topolnitsa and there is hardly a part of town that is not named after an episode or participant in the April Uprising of 1876 in which the town played a crucial role. More than 380 of Koprivshtitsa's houses date from this National Revival era, the most elaborate from 1842 to 1870. The town is a key point for hiking and sightseeing in the highest part of Sredna Gora.
