This well-displayed, modern museum has good exhibits on Kakheti archaeology and history downstairs, and a room of 13 paintings by Kakheti-born artist Niko Pirosmani (1862–1918) upstairs. This is the biggest collection of the self-taught painter's work outside the National Gallery in Tbilisi, and includes several famous canvases including Vintage and Feast in a Grape Gazebo.
