A place for every believer. Religious sights of Georgia - The Church of the Holy Spirit in Batumi.
The first Catholic Cathedral of Batumi is the Church of the Holy Spirit. It looks incredibly beautiful and spectacular. The blog "MadLoba" will show several photos of this church, tell several stories about the location of the attraction. Do I need to add it to my list of what to see in Georgia?
We continue to talk about the religious sights of Georgia, or rather, the city of Batumi. People of different nationalities and faiths live here peacefully, everyone has their own temples.
At the beginning of the 20th century, the first Catholic cathedral was built in Batumi, but it did not function for long. During the years of Soviet power, the churches ceased to operate. After the end of the Second World War, religious buildings began to return to believers.
The former church was transferred to the Georgian Orthodox Church. Now it is the cathedral of the Orthodox diocese.

The new Catholic church was built at the end of the 20th century, the project was prepared by architects O. Pataridze and G. Bagoshvili. The church was consecrated in 2000 by Bishop D. Pazotto, Apostolic Administrator of the Caucasus.
The church looks unusual. Modern technologies are reflected in the running LED line above the entrance to the temple. On the roof there is a two-meter cross covered with silver, the building is decorated with large stained glass windows. The interior is quite modest.
If you are interested in temple architecture and choose what to see in Georgia, visit the Church of the Holy Spirit in Batumi. The temple is located on the outskirts of the city, at the entrance from Tbilisi or Kutaisi.
Address: 54 Gogebashvili Street.
There are many remarkable places in Adjara and Batumi that are worth seeing. Residents honor traditions, cherish architectural and historical monuments. The picturesque nature amazes with its diversity. It is rightfully considered that these are the most beautiful places in Georgia.
