History
[edit]The palace was built by Queen Darejan, wife of Erekle II, in 1776.[1] Joseph Korghanashvili (Georgian: იოსებ ყორღანაშვილისაჩინო), the financial-administrative manager and steward of the Queen, was crucial in the construction of the palace.[2] In fact, as reported in a 1797 decree, Queen Darejan award him with an oil factory in Avlabari for his work in the construction of the complex.[2] The palace withstood the 1795 Battle of Krtsanisi, conducted by the Iranian Agha Mohammad Khan Qajar.[2] Following 1803 Queen Darejan's deportation to Russia, the Russian exarch Teopilakte acquired the complex.[3] After the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, the complex was returned to Georgian Patriarchate.[2]

Architecture
[edit]The structure was built using a mix of river stones and bricks in Georgian style.[2] The arrangement of the stones in the wall structure creates stripes horizontally and vertically, creating a patterns that resembles a vine.[2]
The palace is mostly famous for its balcony, which offers a panoramic view over the city.[4] The structure of the balcony is round and is made from carved wood in a light blue colour. In the past, the balcony served a practical purpose, since its buttress allows to have control over the surroundings of the complex.[5] The lower wall with arched niches and arrow slits also served a defensive purpose, while being decorative.[2]
