The Telovani church of the Holy Cross (Georgian: თელოვნის ჯვარპატიოსნის ეკლესია, romanized: telovnis jvarp'at'iosnis ek'lesia) is an 8th–9th-century Georgian Orthodox church in the Mtskheta Municipality in Georgia's eastern region of Mtskheta-Mtianeti. It is a domed triconch design, with the pastophoria on both sides of the sanctuary. The interior contains now heavily damaged murals, including one of the earliest Georgian depictions of the Mandylion. The church is inscribed on the list of Georgia's Immovable Cultural Monuments of National Significance.[1]
