Bratowo ( Bulgarian Братово ) is a village in the municipality and district / Oblast Burgas in southeastern Bulgaria .

location

Bratowo is located in the eastern part of the Upper Thracian Plain, around 2 km west of the Burgas community center, north of Lake Burgas and around 3 km north of Dolno Eserowo . Nearby is the LUKoil Neftochim oil refinery and the Burgas- Sofia railway line .

history

Bratowo's old name is Canarkadash ( Turkish for brotherly soul ). The founder of the village was the trader Najden Prodanow Stojanow, who fled with his family from the East Thracian Kavaklı near Kırklareli (today in Turkey ) after the Balkan War of 1912/13 and bought land here (see Thracian Bulgarians ). Four years later, in 1917, more refugees came from the eastern Thracian villages of Kavaklı, Terkozlı and Derventa.
