Kldekari Fortress

Kldekari Fortress (Georgian: კლდეკარის ციხესიმაგრე) is a historical fortress in Georgia, Trialeti, on a rocky peak of Trialeti Range near spa town Manglisi, Tetritsqaro Municipality. From here you can see the area around the south, Tsalka and Manglisi, as well as the north - river Tana and Tedzami Valleys. The fortress ruins are currently preserved. It was located at an important crossroads, where a molten rock formed an exit; the name Kldekari means the rock door.

Kldekari Fortress was built after the Argveti feudal lord Liparit I Baghvashi in IX century moved to Trialeti in the 70s. For the next two centuries it was the center of Kldekari Saeristavo. Unable to cope with the growing political power of the Liparitids, the Georgian royal government seized Kldekari Fortress several times.
