The Cherry cannon (Bulgarian: Черешово топче, Chereshovo topche; Macedonian: Црешево топче, Creševo topče) is a wooden cannon, artillery weapon the body of which is made entirely of acacia or cherry. It has no significant combat value, as the wood shatters under explosion after only a few shots. It was first used by Bulgarian anti-Ottoman revolutionaries in the April Uprising. It was used to arm the under-equipped Bulgarian rebels against the Ottoman army. Balance scale masses and pieces of metal were used as ammunition for the cherry cannon. The first cherry guns were created in the spring of 1876. Later cherry guns were used in the Kruševo Republic and at other places of insurgency during the Ilinden–Preobrazhenie Uprising in 1903.
