History
The previous name of the village is Pripechene (Bulgarian: Припечене). During the Ottoman period, the village had a mixed Bulgarian and Turkish population. According to an Ottoman document from 1519 there were 6 Muslim and 39 non-Muslim households in Pripechene. The main occupation of the population in Pripechene was farming rice. A Vasil Kanchov study of 1900 counted 114 Bulgarian and 70 Turkish inhabitants.
The village was renamed General Todorov after general Georgi Todorov in 1984.
