Georgi Mamarchev (Template:Lang-bg; 1786 – 16 July 1846) was a Bulgarian fighter against the Ottoman rule and a captain in the Imperial Russian Army. Mamarchev was the uncle of the Bulgarian revolutionary Georgi Sava Rakovski.[1][2]

Due to the merits of Mamarchev and out of respect for his work, Rakovski took the name of his uncle. [3]

Mamarchev was the mastermind of the Bulgarian Conspiracy of 1835. [4] He was not executed only because he was a Russian citizen, but he was exiled to the island of Samos, where he died. [5][6]
