Akaki Tseteli's House Museum

Akaki Tseteli's House Museum, Literary museum in Skhvitori village, Georgia.

Description

Akaki Tsereteli's House Museum is a literary museum in Skhvitori village, Georgia, housed in a traditional family estate with its main residence and supporting structures. The grounds preserve the original courtyard layout in Imeretian style, with separate buildings for grain storage, baking, and other household functions.

History

The house was built in 1834 by Greek builders and became the birthplace of Georgian poet Akaki Tsereteli in 1840. Its transformation into a museum in 1940 preserved this place for future generations to learn from.

Culture

The rooms display the family's everyday possessions and furnishings that show how people lived in this household across generations. Walking through these spaces lets you understand the domestic world of the poet and those close to him.

Practical

The museum operates several days a week from its location in Sachkhere Municipality and spreads across multiple buildings on the property. Plan time to explore both the main residence and the separate structures that make up the full estate experience.

Did you know?

The museum holds an extensive collection including original manuscripts, books in different languages, and personal documents from the Tsereteli family. These items reveal the intellectual and literary world in which the poet moved.
