Tuden ( Bulgarian Туден ) is a village in the municipality of Godetsch , Sofia Oblast , in western Bulgaria .
The village is located north of the Tschepan Mountains in the middle of the Balkan Mountains , approx. 50 km northwest of the Bulgarian capital Sofia . Nearby are the towns of Slivnitsa , Godetsch and Dragoman .
During the Serbian-Bulgarian War of 1885/86, the village was occupied by Serbian troops from the Danube Division, who set up their positions on the surrounding hills. In the decisive battle of Slivnitsa , Malo Malowo and the surrounding area became a theater of war. On November 6th, July / November 18, 1885 greg. the village was recaptured.
The collectivism of agriculture pursued by the Bulgarian communists and the state-imposed planned economy led to the emigration of the population, especially towards Sofia.
