The Tsirkoli church of the Mother of God (Georgian: წირქოლის ღვთისმშობლის ეკლესია, romanized: ts'irkolis ghvtismshoblis ek'lesia) is an 8th–9th-century Georgian Orthodox church near the village of Tsirkoli in the Ksani river valley. It combines the features of domeless and domed church designs and is classified as belonging to the "transitional period" of medieval Georgian architecture. The area, part of the Akhalgori Municipality, came under the control of Russian and South Ossetian forces in the August 2008 Russo-Georgian War. As a result, the Georgian clergy and parish lost access to the church, which is inscribed on Georgia's Immovable Cultural Monuments of National Significance.[1]
