KUTAISI DISTRICT COURT

Kutaisi District Court was built between 1898 and 1900. Located at the end of present-day Newport Street, near the bank of the Rioni River, the court building plays a prominent role in the city’s urban landscape. The building was designed by Aleksander Szymkiewicz, a renowned Polish architect who worked in Georgia and was responsible for several significant projects. The Kutaisi Court of Appeals is a good example of nineteenth-century architectural eclecticism, blending elements from Renaissance and Baroque styles. Today, it houses the Kutaisi Court of Appeals.
