Georgia and references to its history have appeared on European maps for as long as European cartography itself has existed.
The Golden Fleece, Colchis, Iberia, Georgia, the kingdoms and principalities of Georgia, and its historic fortified cities are just a glimpse of what you will discover during your journey through the world of ancient maps at Mappa Cartographica.
Mappa Cartographica's collection of historical European maps features unique works dating from the 13th to the 20th centuries. Many of these rare pieces belong to Mappa Cartographica's Golden Collection and are available exclusively in our collection in Georgia.
During the guided tour, you will explore original printed maps representing ancient, medieval, and classical European cartographic traditions, discovering how Georgia and its history were depicted and documented throughout the centuries.
The guided tours will take place in November and December 2026 and will be led by Sulkhan Saladze, Director of Mappa Cartographica
