⛪️🌄Nekresi is a historical town in Kakheti, in the Kvareli municipality in Georgia. It was founded by 👑King Farnajom (II-I centuries BC). In the 4th century, the Iberian 🤴king Thrdat built a church here.
At January 7 (Orthodox Christmas), a pig is sacrificed to the monastery along with other animals. According to the legend, the enemy surrounded Nekresi. People killed pigs and rolled the heads of dead pigs in the direction of the enemy. The enemy was afraid and did not attack Nekresi anymore. Academician L.
