An archaeological museum at 77 Chavchavadze Street, set over two levels, displaying ancient jewellery, art, pottery, relics and coins from Georgian excavation sites.

Reviewers agree it is small but worthwhile, with one suggesting about an hour for a visit. One describes the upper floor with its qvevri wine vessels and other artefacts, and a ground-floor room devoted to gold finds. Staff are described as friendly and accommodating, and one reviewer mentions an English-speaking member of staff. The entrance is wheelchair accessible.
