History of the name Berovo

According to the first version, it got its name after the name of a farmer called Bero. An argument for that is the existence of the so-called Berovo meadow, in the area between the villages of Macevo and Robovo, which is considered to have belonged to this farmer.

According to the second version, which is more likely the name Berovo emerged from the fact that people collected (gathered) at that place. The question arises as to where the population has gathered. From the old settlements in the places Turtela, Selca, Ribnica, Razdolo, Klepalo, Dobri Laki and so on, and later from the other Malesevo villages. It is located in the eastern part of Macedonia in the Maleshevia area, that is, the Maleshevo valley. The wealth of beech, pine, oak forests also determined its name "Malesh - Mountain". The Berovo Municipal Centre and the rural settlements are located on the periphery of the valley
