Ujarma Fortress, Georgia

Ujarma (Georgian: უჯარმის ციხე) is a medieval fortress-town at the Outer Kakheti region, in the municipality of Sagarejo Municipality, Georgia. It is located on the right bank of the river Iori, on the Tbilisi — Telavi road, 4 km north of Ujarma village, near Gombori Pass through Tsiv-Gombori Range in the historical-geographical province Gare Kakheti. The fortress consisted of two parts: the Upper Fortress (the Citadel) and the Lower City. A royal palace, consisting of a two-storey building, was located in the eastern part of the Citadel. The Upper Fortress was destroyed in the 10th century by the Arabian conqueror Abul Kassim but was restored in the 12th century by King George III who used it as a treasury. The fortress-city was built on a high hill on the right bank of the river Iori and was the closing gate of the narrow exit of Ivory. A two-storey church named after Jvarpatiosani is built in the prison. The first floor is relatively old, the second floor was built in the X-XI centuries. Wikipedia.org
