Church of Saint George, Orthodox religious building in Old Tbilisi, Georgia.

The church features a single-nave structure at the foot of Narikala citadel, displaying traditional Georgian architectural elements and religious symbolism throughout its design.

The present church, constructed in 1753, stands on the site of an earlier religious structure from King Vakhtang I of Iberia's reign.

The church reflects the intertwining of Georgian and Armenian religious traditions, as Armenian merchant Petros Zohrabian contributed to its reconstruction.

The church operates as an active religious center under the jurisdiction of the Mtskheta and Tbilisi Eparchy of the Georgian Orthodox Church.

During the Soviet period, the church building functioned as a workshop for manufacturing toys and glue before returning to religious service.
