Bisericii Street (Marina Mikhaylova, 18.7.2012)

The village was mentioned in connection with Bulgarian settlers in documents from 1806–1814 under the name Sârbii ot Puntea de Greci (Roman, L. 1984: 143). The 1838 registry of the population records the presence of 66 “Serbian” households (Velichi, C. N. 1965: 114). It is believed that a significant number of Bulgarians came to the village in 1812 from Orjahovo, Pleven and Veliko Tŭrnovo Regions (Velichi, C. N. 1963: 41). G. Weigand visited the village in 1898 and later included it in his atlas as a locality with Bulgarian population (Weigand, G. 1900: 118; Weigand, G. 1909: Map 67). Around 340 Bulgarian families were residing in the village in the second half of the 20th century. Their main occupation was market gardening. There was a strong tendency among younger people to move to cities.
