Today, 26 October the Bulgarian Orthodox church honours the memory of St. Dimitar.
Tribute is paid to St. Dimitar across the entire Balkan Peninsula and especially on Mount Athos where parts of his mortal remains are kept. In folklore tradition, the day of St. Dimitar is said to be the day when the weather breaks and winter begins. According to traditional belief on this day the skies open up, after which we can expect the first snow. Dimitar is the patron saint of winter, cold and snow.
