Skhalta Cathedral, Medieval cathedral in Khulo Municipality, Georgia

Skhalta Cathedral is a medieval stone structure located on a hill in the Qinchauri river valley within Khulo Municipality. The building features a seven-sided apse, two main entrances, and is supported inside by arches that create a cylindrical vault.

Modern studies date the church to the mid-13th century, when the Skhalta valley belonged to the Abuserisdze family; a legend credits Queen Tamar. After the Ottoman conquest in the 16th century it was abandoned. Giorgi Kazbegi sketched it in 1874, and Dimitri Bakradze and Praskovya Uvarova described it after 1878. It was reconsecrated in 1990.

The wall paintings are fragments of New Testament scenes in the Palaeologan style, uncovered by a Georgian expedition in 1997 and dated to the 14th or 15th century. The church is now a male monastery of the Nativity of Mary, consecrated in 1990, and serves as the seat of the Georgian Orthodox bishop of Skhalta.

The monastery stands on a hill in the village of Q'inchauri, Khulo municipality, along the road that linked Adjara with Artani (modern Ardahan, Turkey) in the Middle Ages. The church has portals on the south and west and an additional door on the north. The site was restored to Christian use in 1990 and serves as the seat of the Georgian Orthodox bishop of Skhalta.

Skhalta is the only medieval church in Adjara to have survived both the Ottoman and Soviet periods and to have become functional again, in 1990. In June 1989, Catholicos-Patriarch Ilia II held a requiem here for those who died in landslides and floods earlier that year.
