The Samtsevrisi church of Saint George (Georgian: სამწევრისის წმინდა გიორგის ტაძარი, romanized: samts'evrisis ts'minda giorgis t'adzari) is an early medieval Georgian Orthodox church in the village of Samtsevrisi, Kareli Municipality, in Georgia's region of Shida Kartli.
[2] Samtsevrisi is a small dome church built of hewn grayish-reddish sandstone blocks, with the dimensions of 9.6 × 8.8 m, rising to the height of 10.6 m. The general proportions are harmonious and complete.
Its "free-cross" design, with a horseshoe apse in a cross plan, stylistically dates to the early 7th century, with a bit of the 16th-century stonework—a single-nave funeral chapel—to the southwest.
[3] The church bears two Georgian inscriptions, both made in the medieval asomtavruli script: the one on the eastern façade commemorates the construction of a water canal in the 20th regnal year of Constantine III of Abkhazia, that is, c. 914, by Domnisos and Georgi Tualaisadze.
while the other, on the southern façade, makes mention of the local nobleman, Merab Panaskerteli, who had renovated the church in the late 15th or early 16th century.
