Dimitrie Mincu (russian Дмитрий Кириллович Минков; Bulgarian Димитър Кирилов Минков) was a Bessarabian politician, who was the Mayor of Chișinău in 1849—1854 and then in 1858–1860 and in 1861–1866.[1][2]

Biography

The father of Dimitrie Mincu (Minkov), Chiril (Кирилл), also known as Kalceo (Калчо), was a well-known Bulgarian merchant from Chișinău, who came to Bessarabia from Kalofer. He donated big money for the construction of the cathedral.[3]

Dimitrie Mincu became a judge in 1846, and between 1849 and 1854 led Chișinău in his first term. Before being re-elected as mayor in 1858, between 1854 and 1858 Chișinău's mayor was Anghel Nicolau, who was married to Dimitrie Mincu's sister.[3]

The Mincu's governing is associated with the development of urban trade, active improvement of the city. Thanks to him, cobblestone streets appeared in the city.[4] In his honor, one of the paved streets of Chișinău, by the beginning of the World War II was called Minkowska (now George Coșbuc Street).[5]

In 1848, Adam Krijanovski took the place of Dimitrie Mincu.[5]
