These days a guest of our hotel was the Olympic, world and European champion in classical wrestling – Georgi Merkov, a competitor and coach with many successes.
Mr. Merkov's name is associated with an unforgettable story from the European Wrestling Championship in 1984. which takes place in Sweden . Then in the Hall, on the mat, a young man with flowers, behind which he holds a carbine. He turns out to be a terrorist who wants to attack a sports event to draw attention to his cause. Georgi Merkov, seeing him, manages to take away the carbine, but the terrorist points a gun at him. The two stand opposite each other and, with the help of other competitors, manage to disable the attacker.
Georgi Merkov is the only athlete so far to donate all three of his gold medals to the Museum of sport.
We wish him health and longevity!
