Cathedral of the Assumption of the Virgin, Tbilisi, Roman Catholic cathedral in Tbilisi, Georgia.

The Cathedral of the Assumption of the Virgin features a main entrance adorned with stained glass windows depicting archangels and a statue of Virgin Mary.

The cathedral, built between 1805 and 1808 by monk Philipo Foranian, stands on the site where Dominicans established their first monastery in 1240.

The cathedral walls display intricate gold accents and religious paintings, while large double-decker chandeliers illuminate the interior space from high ceilings.

Located on one of Tbilisi's oldest streets, the cathedral holds English-language Mass services every Saturday from 17:30 to 18:30.

The Soviet government seized the cathedral in 1937, but it returned to religious service in 1999 following Pope John Paul II's visit to Georgia.
