The Burovi Bank was built in 1912 according to a design by the Hungarian architect. Janovic, and the construction manager is Eng. Gero Gerov. The building is located on an area of ​​200 sq.m. and is built in the style of neoclassicism. It consists of a ground floor, two floors and an attic. The top floor is decorated with a medallion and two bas-relief female figures.

The cylindrical corner part ends with a sheet metal tower and a spire on top. In front of the windows there was a beautiful iron lattice, removed during repairs. On the ground floor was the bank hall, which has now been converted into a shop. For many years, the building housed the Pension Department and the ground floor - the Old Pear snack bar.

Burovi is one of the most famous families in Bulgaria, which has given the country remarkable economic and political figures. After the First World War, the bank in Ruse was managed by Atanas Burov, who has great merits for the development of the city as chairman of the Ruse Chamber of Commerce and Industry and founder of modern vocational education in Ruse.
