Balgarianovinite.com The April Uprising marks some of the most glorious periods in Bulgarian history, combining both greatness and tragedy, President Iliana Iotova said during a ceremony marking the 150th anniversary of the April Uprising in Byala Cherkva, North Central Bulgaria.
Iotova said the uprising embodied martyrdom, death and betrayal, but also a boundless love for Bulgaria and the dream of a homeland equal to the other nations of Europe, as envisioned by revolutionary Vasil Levski.
She described Byala Cherkva as holding a special place in Bulgaria’s spiritual and historical geography and recalled that 100 rebels had joined the uprising from the town’s 120 households, many of whom never returned.
According to the President, the revolution had begun in people’s hearts long before the uprising itself, through faith, education and the work of revolutionary figures such as Bacho Kiro.
Iotova concluded by paying tribute to the memory of the April Uprising’s martyrs and heroes. The ceremony also included a formal military review by cadets from the Vasil Levski National Military University and a ceremonial tattoo.
