SHIPKA Street in central Sofia was named to commemorate one of the greatest victories in the history of the Bulgarian people — the heroic battle in 1877 at the Shipka Pass of the Balkan Range during the Russo-Turkish War.
The war itself was provoked by the atrocities of the Ottoman troops in Bulgaria during the crushing of the 1876 April Uprising and Turkey’s consequent refusal to grant autonomy to the Bulgarian lands.
In short, the liberation of Bulgaria was entirely dependent on the efficiency of the several thousand Bulgarian volunteers in keeping their positions at Shipka in those summer days.
