The village of Brodilovo is located in South-East Bulgaria and is included in Municipality Tsarevo (Bourgas District). It lies 20 km south of Tsarevo on the left bank of the Veleka at a river ford, as the name shows ("brod" means a ford). The majority of the population were Bulgarian refugees from Eastern Thrace who settled here after the Balkan wars and World War One. A census taken in 1926 showed that of the 1110 Brodilovians, 720 were immigrants. The St. Pantheleymon Church built up in 1911 is adorned with one of the best artworks in Strandja - an intricately carved iconostasis, made by the local school teacher Yanis. The church is proclaimed a monument of culture.
