Sergi Makalatia Gori Historical and Ethnographic Museum<\/strong><\/p>\n

On the initiative of Gori society and with the support of Iv. Javakhishvili, S.Makalatia and I.Kipshidze, in 1935 the Museum of Local History was founded in Gori, which in 1943 was transformed into a historical-ethnographic museum. In 2005\u00a0the museum\u00a0was named after Prof. Sergi Makalatia. Due to expeditions\u00a0undertaken by\u00a0museum since 1930’s and to the abundance of materials from all over Georgia, Gori soon became the main museum facility of Shida Kartli. The museum houses over 90,000 exhibits: archaeological and ethnographic artifacts, photo, film and audio archives, manuscripts and epigraphic\u00a0objects.<\/p>\n

The International alliance for the protection of heritage in conflict areas (ALIPH) provides concrete support for the protection and reconstruction of cultural heritage in conflict zones and post-conflict situations. The Alliance was founded in March 2017 in response to the massive destruction of outstanding, often ancient, cultural heritage in recent years. Operating under Swiss law, this Geneva-based foundation, also has the status of an international organization.<\/p>\n
