Hadzhi Dimitar

1840–1868

Life

Hadzhi Dimitar was a revolutionary leader from Sliven. His band and the events around Buzludzha belong to the nineteenth century. The statue shown in the app is a later work, rather than a photograph of him. Accounts of the battle and his final days must be distinguished from securely established details. Led a band with Stefan Karadzha in 1868. Acted against Ottoman rule. Was later commemorated near Buzludzha. His commemoration is a separate historical layer from the socialist Memorial House.
