Bebris tsikhe, Medieval fortress in Mtskheta-Mtianeti, Georgia.

The fortress consists of two levels with a triangular citadel and three towers positioned at the corners of the structure.

The fortress, originally named Belti, protected the regions of Mtskheta and Tbilisi from northern threats through the Greater Caucasus Range.

Archaeological studies at Bebris Tsikhe have uncovered artifacts that demonstrate the evolution of Georgian military architecture through different periods.

The fortress walls, constructed with uniform stones measuring over 2 meters in thickness, remain partially intact for visitors to examine.

The southwestern tower functioned as a four-level donjon with wooden ceilings and specific openings designed for defensive purposes.
