Metekhi Church, was built in 1289 by King Demetre II, although the former church stood here already in 5th century. In 12th century royal palace was moved near the church, the name "Metekhi" may be translated as "the area near palace". The Church was destroyed and later repaired several times. Under Russian rule the site was the home of the infamous Metekhi jail.
