Laghami Savior Church: Two-Story Temple in Svaneti

The Church of the Savior in Lagami is located in the Svaneti region.

It has two floors. The first floor, built in the 8th-9th centuries, is the church's guest room, with a simple interior and a flat altar. Over time, an extension was added to the structure.

The second floor, built in the 13th century, is a hall room, the interior of which features beautiful pilasters and traditional arches.

On the western side, you can find an extension that dates back to the so-called third stage of construction.

Simple facing shafts adorn the building's windows. The first floor is constructed of stone, while the second floor is made of hewn stone.

All the building's facades are painted in various colors of the rainbow. The church houses frescoes dating from various periods, each unique and beautiful in its own way.

You can also see portraits of famous figures here. Each fresco is unique. They all depict scenes from the Old and New Testaments, icons, and images of saints.
