In general, Roma and Sinti people practice the religion of the country in which they live. The Roma in Bulgaria are mainly divided between three religions: Orthodoxy, Islam and Protestantism. In fact, they have perceived and continue to perceive Islam and Christianity in their own way. Therefore, the religiosity of Roma in Bulgaria (Christian and Muslim) acquires a particular syncretic character, and in this respect it should not be classified as “pure” religiosity (Christian or Muslim).
