Summary edit

Description A fabulous and brightly lit chandelier hangs above the main altar inside the Svetitskhoveli Cathedral of the Twelve Apostles in Mtskheta, Georgia. The town is considered to be the most religious city of Georgia as it has been the shrine of pagan idols since times immemorial. It is in this church that Christianity in Georgia is believed to have taken its origin. In recognition of its role in the Georgian Christian history, Mtskheta was granted the status of a Holy City by Catholicos-Patriarch Ilia II of Georgia in accordance to the written testament of his 11th-century predecessor Melchizedek I of Georgia. (Mtskheta, Georgia, Sept. 2016)
