Kvetera Church, Medieval church in Akhmeta, Georgia

The stone structure features a central dome resting on a round tympanum, with symmetrical arches adorning its limestone exterior facades.

Built in 901 CE, Kvetera Church served as a religious center within one of the three main feudal principalities of medieval Kakheti.

The church stands as a testament to Georgian architectural traditions, incorporating local construction techniques and regional design elements.

Located 9 kilometers from Akhmeta town, the church requires private transportation for access due to limited public transit options.
