Timotesubani Monastery near Borjomi


Timotesubani Monastery is a medieval Georgian Orthodox Christian monastic complex located in the village of Timotesubani in the Borjomi Gorge, Georgia's Samtskhe-Javakheti region. The complex consists of a series of structures built between the 11th and 18th centuries. The largest and most important building of the monastery is the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, which was built during the reign of Queen Tamar between 1184 and 1213.
The monastic complex was built with pinkish brick and includes several churches, houses for the monks, and even a church shop. To the north of the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary are the remains of 10th-11th century monastic buildings and the vestiges of a hall church belonging to the 11th century. Monks' houses can be seen in the monastery's large, well-kept yard. On the upper northern terrace is a small, single-nave basilica built to commemorate Saint Barbara, the patron saint of armorers, artillerymen, military engineers, miners, and others in need of protection. To the northeast of the church, there are remains of a tomb made of stone.
The interior of the church was extensively frescoed in no later than the 1220s. Most of the frescoes have survived to this day. The frescoes were cleaned and studied by E. Privalova and colleagues in the 1970s and underwent emergency treatment and conservation with aid from the World Monuments Fund and the Samuel H. Kress Foundation in the 2000s.
