Ananuri (Georgian ანანური) is a castle in Georgia, near the village of the same name in Dusheti Municipality, Mtskheta-Mtianeti Region, on the Georgian Military Road. It dates from the transition from the late Middle Ages to the early modern period, and its oldest parts date back to the 13th century.
The complex includes religious, secular and military buildings. In the castle there is a Georgian Orthodox monastery. The castle has two large churches: the older, smaller Church of the Redeemer and the large Dormition of the Theotokos Church, built in 1689, which is characterized by rich relief decoration on the outer walls and frescoes inside.
