Happy 1 November – Day of Bulgarian Enlighteners
2024.11.01
Greetings from the National Academy of Art on 1st November – Day of the People's Awakeners!
1 November is the day when we pay tribute to the memory and work of those great Bulgarians who dedicated their lives with self-sacrifice, love and devotion to build the Bulgaria we know today – free, enlightened and strong.
For the first time, the holiday was celebrated on 1 November 1922, when on the old style date – the Day of St John of Rila, the Wonder Worker, the heavenly patron of the Bulgarian people and country.
Be proud and inspired, in good health!
