The Pichori Church (Georgian: ფიჩორის ეკლესია) is located in the village of Pichori, Gali Municipality, Autonomous Republic of Abkhazia, Georgia.[2]

History[]

The church is built in the Middle Ages. Currently the area is occupied by Russia, which is why it is impossible to study the church and perform appropriate works.

  1. ^ Abkhazia is the subject of a territorial dispute between the Republic of Abkhazia and Georgia. The Republic of Abkhazia unilaterally declared independence on 23 July 1992, but Georgia continues to claim it as part of its own sovereign territory and designates it as a territory occupied by Russia. Abkhazia has received formal recognition as an independent state from 7 out of 193 United Nations member states, 1 of which has subsequently withdrawn its recognition.
