    The Tushmalishvili family tower in Martkopi is a historical landmark of Georgia, which is a 4-story building decorated with rhombuses and a Calvary cross on the southern wall. The object is interesting for its domed internal ceiling and unique brickwork. The tower contains turrets and boots of considerable interest to researchers.

    It is important to note that the Tushmalishvili family tower currently requires restoration, since the southern wall of this important historical site collapsed in 2002. Despite this, it remains a significant part of Georgian cultural heritage and a revered landmark in Martkopi.

    A visit to the tower will be interesting and educational for lovers of historical architecture and the history of Georgia in general. This attraction can become an object of study for students and scholars studying the culture and history of this region.

      Кирпичные узоры на стене башни в Марткопи словно переносят в прошлое, рассказывая истории, которые древним эхо доносятся до наших дней. Каждый шаг по раскинутым вокруг просторам наполняет тебя ощущением величия и одновременно грусти от увиденного запустения. Так и хочется взять в руки камеру и попытаться поймать этот дух времени в кадре. Башня просит о заботе и внимании, и представляясь в обновленном виде, могла бы стать настоящим магнитом для любителей истории и архитектуры.

      The tower is from the 18th century and has a brickwork on the south wall that features rhombuses and a Golgotha cross. There's a decorative brick cornice between the second and third floors of the facade. In 2002, the south wall collapsed. The floors are vaulted with arches made of brick, and inside there's a dome-shaped ceiling. The structure is four stories high and has loopholes, crenellations, and lookouts. It's a very impressive historical site, but unfortunately, visitors can't see or explore it, which is a shame. It would be wonderful to develop a tourist attraction here. The current condition is quite poor and the walls could really use some restoration.
