On March 26, Bulgarians mark the Day of Thrace and 106 years of the Edirne Epopee. On this day, we pay respect to the feats of the Bulgarian warriors who lost their lives in fights in Thrace and during the Siege of Edirne, as well as to the memory of the thousands of Bulgarian refugees from Thrace, who found shelter in Bulgaria during persecutions against Bulgarians from Aegean Thrace.
On March 26, 1913, during the Balkan War, the Bulgarian Army captured the Edirne fortress, which was decisive for the freedom of Thracian Bulgarians.
