Biography

House of Hristo Tatarchev (now museum) in Resen

Tatarchev was born in the town of

Unification of Bulgaria and enrolled in a students' legion, which took part in the Serbo-Bulgarian War of 1885. Tatarchev was expelled from school because of "insubordination" and he moved to Romania, where he continued his secondary education. Later he studied medicine at the University of Zurich (1887–1890) and completed his degree in Medicine in Berlin (July 1892). He moved to Thessaloniki in 1892, where he worked as a physician at the local Bulgarian secondary school for boys.[1]

He was a founding member of the Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization (first name disputed), which was established on 23 October 1893 in Thessaloniki.[7][8][9] In the following year, he was elected President of the Central Committee of IMRO. Tatarchev participated in the Thessaloniki Congress of IMRO in 1896.

In early 1901 he was caught by the

Temporary representation of the former IMARO
.

In the fall of 1920, he entered the

DFR Yugoslavia.[14][15] Thus Tatarchev returned to Turin, where he also communicated with Ivan Mihailov, who moved to Italy as well.[16] He died on 5 January 1952.[1]

Relatives

Tatarchev’s relatives were also involved in the Macedonian revolutionary movement. His brother Mihail was an activist of IMRO and the mayor of Resen during the Bulgarian occupation of Serbia in the First World War, when he was killed.[17]

His nephew, Asen Tatarchev, was also an IMRO activist in interwar period. In 1946 he was sentenced to death, later commuted to life imprisonment, by the Yugoslav authorities for collaborating with the Bulgarian occupational authorities during World War II.[18]

Tatarchev’s grand nephew,

Tatarchev married Sophia Logothetis, a daughter of the Greek consul in Bitola.

Honours

In December 2009, his remains were brought from Turin to

VMRO-BND, a modern political party claiming descent from the IMRO.[20] Tatarchev's reburial took place in Sofia, on 23 October 2010, exactly 117 years since the founding of the IMRO.[21]

Tatarchev Nunatak on Oscar II Coast in Graham Land, Antarctica is named after Hristo Tatarchev.
