Svobody Square - Freedom Square, located in the heart of Tbilisi, has seen several name changes over its 200-year history. Constructed in the early 19th century in a neo-classical style with Moorish elements, it was initially named Pashkevich-Erivanskaya Square to honor Ivan Paskevich, a Ukrainian general of the Russian Imperial Army who captured Erivan (now Yerevan, Armenia) for the Russian Empire. In 1907, the square was the site of a daring and bloody bank robbery involving Joseph Stalin, which netted the equivalent of 4 million US dollars today. After the Russian Empire’s collapse, the square was renamed Freedom Square during the establishment of the First Georgian Republic in 1918, but it was later renamed “Beria Square” and then “Lenin Square” during Soviet times. Following Georgia’s independence, the square reverted to its 1918 name, Freedom Square. In 2006, the Freedom Monument, also known as the St. George Statue, was erected in the center of the square. Designed by Georgian sculptor Zurab Tsereteli, it is dedicated to the freedom and independence of the Georgian nation.

Georgian kings rebuilt the church in the 16th and 17th centuries, with another restoration in the mid-19th century when all surrounding fortifications were dismantled and replaced with a prison building.
