Foreign, Culture Ministers to visit Leuville Estate

Georgian Foreign Minister, David Zalkaliani and Minister of Culture, Sports and Youth Affairs, Tea Tsulukiani will visit Leuville Estate in France on June 27.

A presentation of the Orangerie Project and Management Council sitting will be held there. The rehabilitation works at the Leuville Estate began in 2017. The second stage envisages the arrangement of Leuville Chateau and other buildings.

An important historic milestone for Georgia was reached in France in 2016 when a document was signed officially transferring the Leuville Estate back to Georgia after 89 years.

Signing of the agreement ended the 25-year long handover process of the 4.5-hectare estate where the first government of Georgia settled in exile after fleeing Georgia’s Soviet occupation in 1921.
