Bulgarian Men's High School of Thessaloniki

Bulgarian Men's High School of Thessaloniki

The Sts. Cyril and Methodius Bulgarian Men's High School of Thessaloniki ( _bg. Солунска българска мъжка гимназия „Св. св. Кирил и Методий“, "Solunska balgarska mazhka gimnaziya „Sv. sv. Kiril i Metodiy“") [ [http://www.esnips.com/doc/b26f6de5-c0f0-4a65-976d-9cf11a2f7c68/direkzija direkzija] ] was the first Bulgarian high school in Macedonia. One of the most influential Bulgarian educational centres in Macedonia and Eastern Thrace, it was founded in 1880 in Ottoman Thessaloniki (today in Greece) and existed until 1913. The high school was subsequently moved to the Bulgarian town of Gorna Dzhumaya in Pirin Macedonia, Bulgaria where it exists even nowadays as "Sts. Cyril and Methodius National Humanitarian High School".

Among the initiators, principals and teachers at the high school were noted Bulgarian intellectuals, scientists, and public figures such as Kuzman Shapkarev, Vasil Kanchov, Grigor Parlichev, and Konstantin Velichkov. The school's graduates include Gotse Delchev, Dame Gruev, Todor Aleksandrov, Andrey Lyapchev, Ivan Mihaylov, Anton Ketskarov and other key figures of the Bulgarian revolutionary movement and politics of the early 20th century.
