  • Description

The Church of St. George, located in the picturesque Mtskheta-Mtianeti region, adorns the village of Sakdrioni in the Tianeti municipality. This architectural masterpiece dates back to the 8th-9th centuries, preserving the spirit of history, carefully preserving its original form and appearance.

The church is a fine example of the hall type of architecture, complemented by a south chapel and a two-story bell tower, created in different periods. The entrance to the church, architrave and graceful, welcomes visitors from the south.

The interior of the church amazes with its beauty and sophistication. An apse with a refectory, decorated with geometric and floral patterns, rises on the eastern side, giving the whole space a special pious character.

Through the majestic windows located on all sides of the building, soft light penetrates, illuminating every corner of the temple. The steps along the western wall create a cozy atmosphere, complementing the overall appearance of the church.

Architectural harmony inside and modest beauty outside make this church not only a place for prayer, but also an object of admiration for all who value ancient traditions and cultural heritage.

A visit to the Church of St. George in Sakdrioni is worth it for anyone who wants to feel the spirit of antiquity and grandeur, to plunge into the atmosphere of mysticism and beauty of medieval architecture of Georgia.

    A place with its charm dimmed by time's disregard. The potential is clear, but the crumbling state stings the eyes and the spirit alike.

    Когда оказываешься в этом месте, время будто останавливается. Каменные стены хранят дыхание веков, а внутри чувствуешь покой. Удивительно, как история и величие могут сочетаться с простотой — эта атмосфера проникает в самое сердце. Кажется, здесь каждое мгновение наполнено благоговением.

    Место, в котором время замерло. Ощущение, будто прошлое совсем рядом, - это одновременно и завораживает, и немного огорчает. Детали интерьера напоминают о том, что этому месту нужна забота и внимание. Хочется, чтобы кто-то взялся за реставрацию и вернул ему прежнее великолепие. Ведь за внешней простотой скрывается огромный потенциал. Визит оставил смешанные чувства: уважение к истории и легкое разочарование от нынешнего состояния.

    Удивительное путешествие во времени среди исторических стен, которые несомненно перенесли меня в прошлое.

    ეს სოფლის ეკლესია ძლიერად მომაჯადოებელი და ისტორიული ატმოსფეროთია გაჯერებული, რომელშიც ნამდვილად ვიგრძენი დროში მოგზაურობის შეგრძნება.

    The ancient structure holds an undeniable historical charm, yet leaves one yearning for a bit more care and restoration. The stonework whispers stories of old, echoing within its quiet interior. However, the atmosphere feels slightly neglected, as if time has been too harsh on this once vibrant place. A visit offers reflection under the two-tiered bell tower, but also a wish for a touch more reverence in maintenance.

    Красивое место. При входе интерьер храма разделен по векам.
