An outdoor informational display board is depicted, presenting a detailed schematic of the Baba Vida castle. The board features a rectangular, dark blue panel with a weathered, dark brown wooden frame. The title, "План на замък „Баба Вида“ / Scheme of “Baba Vida” castle," is prominently displayed in white text at the top. The central and largest element is a multi-colored map of the castle, illustrating its layout with various sections labeled in both Bulgarian and English. Key areas identified include an External yard, Internal yard, Barrack's room, Storehouse, Guard rooms, Loading platform, Prison, Roman tower, Austrian tower, Entrance tower, and Strazimir's tower (dating to the XIII-XIV centuries). A legend on the lower left clarifies construction periods using color-coding: Roman period (blue), Bulgarian period (red), Austrian period (light blue), and Ottoman period (dark blue, though this color is not explicitly used on the map). Below the map, three separate text blocks, presented in both Bulgarian and English, provide historical context and descriptions of the castle. These text blocks are accompanied by small photographic images of archaeological artifacts, including ceramic vessels, a stone bust, and metal ornaments. The sign is mounted directly against a textured wall composed of irregular reddish-brown bricks and visible grey mortar joints. No individuals or active subjects are present in the image. The location is the Baba Vida castle in the city of Vidin, Bulgaria, as indicated by the sign's title and content.
