Descriptions

National Military University dates back to the fall of 1878, when on September 1 in Filipopol (now Plovdiv), the Imperial Russian Commissioner in Bulgaria, Adjutant General Prince Alexander Mikhailovich Dondukov-Korsakov, signed Order No. 14 under the Military Administration of The Bulgarian Zemstvo Army, with which he appointed the first command staff of the Sofia Military School, consisting of six people. The school is called Sofia, since it is planned to be where the seat of the future Bulgarian prince will be. The first head of the school was appointed the captain of the Russian Guard Nikolay Nikolaevich Fleisher, who issued Order No. 1 on the school on September 6. From this date begins the countdown not only of the military school, but also of the entire Bulgarian military education system. In Plovdiv, the school is located in the "Holy Trinity" Primary School, which was located in the old part of today's city. The relocation of the school in Sofia takes place from November 14 to 19 – to Pazardzhik by train, and from there on foot. The mission of Vasil Levski National University is to build up its graduates morally, mentally and physically, to introduce them to the ideals of patriotism, duty and honor, to form them as individuals and leaders with established leadership qualities, capable of developing and applying scientific knowledge, to manage public and special structures in peacetime and crises and to participate in national and multinational projects for maintaining security, peacekeeping and community development.
