Armenian diaspora in Bulgaria

The Armenian diaspora in Bulgaria consists of people of Armenian heritage living in Bulgaria, primarily due to historical migration and refugee movements, especially following the Armenian Genocide in the early 20th century. They have established a vibrant community with cultural, religious, and social institutions, maintaining Armenian language, traditions, and Orthodox Christian faith. Today, the Armenian Bulgarians contribute to Bulgaria’s multicultural fabric, with their presence evident through churches, schools, and cultural events, fostering both Greek-Armenian identity and integration within Bulgarian society.
