Its historical importance and numerous cultural monuments have earned it UNESCO World Heritage status. It served as the capital of the early Georgian Kingdom of Iberia from the 3rd century BC to the 5th century AD. Mtskheta remained the coronation and burial site for most Georgian kings until the kingdom’s end in the 19th century. The Svetitskhoveli Cathedral, the second-largest church in Georgia after the Holy Trinity Cathedral, is revered as the burial site of Christ’s mantle and was the coronation and burial site for Georgian kings.

The memorial is located at Bayonne Harbor in New Jersey.
