Tbilisi: Museum of Soviet Occupation Guided Tour

Explore the Museum of Soviet Occupation in Tbilisi on a guided tour. Discover Georgia’s struggle for identity and self-determination through powerful exhibits and untold stories.
Begin your journey with a glimpse into Georgia’s pre-Soviet history — a turbulent time of shifting empires and brief independence that set the stage for the creation of the Soviet Union and Georgia’s forced entry into it.

On this guided tour through the Museum of Soviet Occupation, explore the dramatic story of a nation's struggle for identity and self-determination. With your guide’s insight, feel the weight of the choices, sacrifices, and silent resistance that marked seventy years of Soviet rule.

See rare personal letters, surveillance files, propaganda posters, and haunting photographs of those who dared to oppose the regime — poets, intellectuals, clergy, students.

Learn how Georgian language, culture, and faith endured in secrecy. Discover how underground movements grew stronger over time, leading to the national awakening of the late 1980s and ultimately, the restoration of independence in 1991.

Throughout the tour, your guide will share the untold human stories behind the history — stories of courage, sorrow, and strength — helping you connect the past to Georgia’s present-day spirit.
