The National Museum of Georgia is the embodiment of the cultural and historical wealth of the Georgian nation. Founded at the end of 2004, it unites several leading museums from different regions of Georgia into a single museum network. It is not just a place to store historical relics and works of art, but also a living organism that maintains the cultural heritage of the country and makes it accessible to both current and future generations.
The National Museum of Georgia is the center where the national collections are preserved, cared for and managed. Its structure includes museums, research centers and libraries, each of which contributes to the cultural and civil life of the Georgian people. By inspiring people throughout their lives, the National Museum of Georgia strives to connect them with various aspects of the human experience.
With rapid changes in economics, demographics and technology, the museum is adapting to offer new and improved museum services. The National Museum of Georgia continues to provide the educational and cultural opportunities needed for a competitive future.
Through its collections, exhibitions, educational programs and international partnerships, the National Museum of Georgia serves as an important and trusted resource for lifelong learning and global understanding.
The creation of the museum was made possible thanks to structural, institutional and legal reforms aimed at modernizing the management of museum institutions and coordinating research and educational activities. Since its founding, the museum has been led by Professor David Lordkipanidze, a corresponding member of the Georgian Academy of Sciences, whose leadership contributed to its formation and development.
Thus, the National Museum of Georgia is at the forefront of preserving the art, history and culture of the Georgian people, playing a key role in the educational and cultural space of the country.
