Georgi Fingov

After the Liberation of Bulgaria in 1878, Georgi Fingov's father was briefly governor of Targovishte, Botevgrad and Pleven.

As a student, Fingov was an assistant of Karl Mayreder at the university and worked in the prominent Austrian architect's studio.

Fingov's separate works in Plovdiv include the Neo-Gothic Protestant church in the city and several residential buildings.

He quickly became the head of the Sofia Municipality department of architecture, where he succeeded Friedrich Grünanger.

In 1905, Fingov left the Ministry of Public Works to start a private career, which lasted until 1936.
