Vandring
It is an abandoned castle on a high rock above the river.
Very little is known about the ancient history of the Askana castle. Archaeologists found there layers of IV century. The Turks Askana Castlecaptured it in 1774, but soon the princes Gurieli with the help of Imeretian kings repulsed it back. At the beginning of the XIX century it belonged to the princes Asatiani and was captured by the Gurian princes until about 1820. About it in the book of Vasily Potto “Caucasian war” there is a big story. With abbreviations, it looks like this:
