Katskhi Pillar

Georgia

Perched dramatically atop a colossal limestone monolith, this singular hermitage soars 40 metres above the enchanting Georgian countryside. A testament to the solitude of ascetic monks, it's believed to date back to the 9th or 10th century, though it reclined in mystery and ruin until the late 20th century. Inscriptions hint at ancient secrets, and recent restoration has unveiled a charming chapel clinging bravely to the pinnacle. With its dynamic juxtaposition against the sky, the site embodies both spiritual ascendance and architectural defiance, leaving voyagers to marvel at its audacious existence.
