📍 Coords and Plus Code

The church of St. George in Lahili also carries the Svan name Mkheris jgrag: jgrag is what Svaneti calls this saint, and the name is met all over the area.

Lahili is a village on the upper Enguri rich in shrines: three hundred metres away lie the ruins of the Lamaria Marian church, and a kilometre off the ruins of the church of St. Elijah. In neighbouring Kvanchianari, also about a kilometre away, works a church of the Archangel.

There are usually no regular services here, yet the shrine can be approached at any time. Follow the coordinates.

    შუა საუკუნეების ეკლესია ქვით არის აშენებული. შესასვლელი მხოლოდ დასავლეთ მხრიდანაა. ეს ნაგებობა საკმაოდ მაღალია. საქართველოს პრეზიდენტის 2006 წლის ბრძანებით, ეკლესია ეროვნული მნიშვნელობის კულტურის უძრავი ძეგლის სტატუსს დაეუფლა.
