History

[edit]

In 1371 Ormenio was the site of theBattle of Maritsa in which theSerb army underIvan Uglesha and his brotherVukashin was decisively defeated by theOttomans. It was known as "Çirmen" during Ottoman rule and was asanjak centre until 1829.[2] In 1878 it was inhabited by 870 Bulgarians and 120 Muslims.[3] After theBalkan Wars, the village was annexed to Bulgaria as "Chernomen" until 1919, when the village was ceded to Greece in theTreaty of Neuilly. In 1997 under theKapodistrias reform, the community of Ormenio became part of the new municipality of Trigono with 12 other former communities. At the 2011 Kallikratis reform, Trigono became a municipal unit of the municipalityOrestiada.
