Église de la Mère-de-Dieu-d'Ivérie de Tbilissi

The Church of Our Lady of Iveron features traditional Georgian architectural elements with high arches, domed ceilings, and detailed religious frescoes spanning the walls.

Built upon a former Armenian cemetery, this Orthodox church maintains its position as a religious center through periods of social and political changes in Georgia.

The church functions as a gathering place for Orthodox Christian ceremonies and houses exhibitions of Georgian religious art throughout the calendar year.

Visitors need to wear modest clothing when entering the church, and photography requires permission from the church administration before capturing interior images.

The church bears the name of the Panagia Portaitissa icon, which according to tradition was painted by Luke the Evangelist and rescued from the sea.
