📍 Coords and Plus Code

A parish church of Saint George, the only one in the village. The dedication is the commonest in the country: the saint is honoured twice a year and the folk calendar is built around his memory.

Drbo is a small village in eastern Imereti, in the same hilly belt as Darka and Speti. Little is known about the church: the dedication, the type and the fact that it is in use. Neither a century of building nor any architectural detail has survived, and we will not invent them.

There are no regular services, so a Sunday morning is the surer time to come. Dress modestly, women wear a headscarf. The roads in this belt are unpaved, and in wet weather a dry day is the better choice.

📌 In brief

  • A parish church of Saint George, the only one in the village
  • Eastern Imereti, off the road towards Sachkhere
  • Neither the century of building nor architectural detail has survived

    ეს ეკლესია ცნობილია ჭალის აბაშიძეების სახელით და მიეკუთვნება “ხალხურ” მხატვრობას. უმეტესად დაკეტილია, გასაღები კი ახლოს მდებარე ოჯახშია. თუ ვინმეს იპოვით მეზობლად, ის დაგეხმარებათ.
