Romanov Palace

Romanov Palace, Royal palace in Borjomi, Georgia.

Romanov Palace, also known as Likani Palace, is a Moorish-style villa on the bank of the Kura River in Likani, near Borjomi. It was designed by Leon Benois and built between 1892 and 1895 under architect L. Bilfeld. The palace has a total area of 690 square meters.

The palace was built between 1892 and 1895 to a design by Leon Benois, with construction supervised by architect L. Bilfeld. In 1898 the first hydroelectric power station in the Russian Empire was built at Likani to light the palace. After the Soviet takeover the residence became state property and was used by Communist Party leaders, including Joseph Stalin. A museum opened here in 2016.

The palace's name links it to the Romanov dynasty, and its rooms are associated with Grand Duke Nicholas Mikhailovich and later Joseph Stalin, who rested here. Part of the original furniture is now held by the Simon Janashia Museum of Georgia in Tbilisi, so the interiors on site are not fully furnished as they were under the Romanovs.

The palace has served as a museum since 2016 and is also the summer residence of the President of Georgia, so parts may be closed during official use. It stands in Likani, next to Borjomi, on the bank of the Kura River. Visitors can see Romanov-era furniture from the collection now held by the Simon Janashia Museum of Georgia.

The palace's electric lighting came from the first hydroelectric power station in the Russian Empire, built at Likani in 1898. Part of the original furniture is now held by the Simon Janashia Museum of Georgia in Tbilisi, and Prokudin-Gorsky's colour photographs record the Romanov-era interiors.
