Abandoned 19th Century Ballroom in Chugureti - Dancing Gone, but the Stucco Remains
- Description
In the very heart of Chugureti, among the historical facades and old houses, the building of the former Tiflis Real School is hidden. It has survived eras, wars and changes of power - but on the second floor there is still a ballroom, full of echoes of bygone melodies.
High ceilings, stucco, arched windows and remains of decorative elements have been preserved even despite the deteriorating state of the building. Today it is inhabited by refugees, but the architectural value has remained intact. Everything inside breathes time.
This hall is a place for those who are looking for the atmosphere of old Tiflis. It is not open to the public, but its history and interior are of interest to architects, researchers, and urbanists.
How to find: The exact address is not indicated, but the building is located in the Chugureti district, within the boundaries of an old residential area. It is noticeable by its architectural features and the balcony silhouette of the facade.
