At the outbreak of the Balkan War in 1912, 131 people from Bansko were volunteers in the Macedonian-Odrin fights. Bansko was released on October 5, 1912 with the help of rebellious, led by Yonko Vaptsarov, Hristo Chernopeev, Peyo Yavorov and others. Two days later, Peyo Yavorov congratulated Bansko' population as free Bulgarian residents with following words: "Brothers, drop off the fez (turkish hat), from now on, you are free Bulgarians". This phrase is also written on a memorial plaque in the courtyard of the Holy Trinity Church, where the Yavorov bust-monument is situated.
