Bulgarian Education and Culture and Slavonic Literature Day commonly know as Cyril And Methodius Day or Alphabet Day is celebrated on May 24th in Bulgaria. Cyril and Methodius recognized as saints by both the Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches have given their names to the Cyrillic Alphabet widely used in Slavic countries including Bulgarian and Russia.
