History: The first inhabitants in the vicinity of the village were in IV millennium BC. They founded a settlement in the locality "Pchelinya" where in our days were found pottery, tools made of flint and stone. In the same area there are remains of a Thracian settlement that was occupied in the first millennium BC. North of the village there are two mounds, and west - one, which are tombs of Thracian rulers or local heroes lived in the same village.
During the Roman rule / I-IV in AD / at a height called "Kaleto", the Romans built a fort remains of which were well preserved until the end of last century.
