The Bochorma fortress (Georgian: ბოჭორმის ციხე, romanized: boch'ormis tsikhe) is a medieval architectural complex in eastern Georgia, located in the Tianeti Municipality in the region of Mtskheta-Mtianeti.
The inner part of the citadel stands on the irregular ground and is surrounded by a high curtain wall, with towers.
The interior bears frescoes, which are, judging from the style of paintings, dated to the early 12th century and in a very poor state of preservation.
[1] In the lowest register of the northeastern conch of the church is a donor who is identified with King David IV of Georgia (r. 1089-1125).
The iconography illustrates David's promotion of his status as a Christian monarch and a claim to symbolic succession to the Byzantine emperor in the region, which he had only acquired in 1104.
[1] The Bochorma fortress is first mentioned in the medieval Georgian chronicles in an account of the Sajid invasion of Georgia of 914.
