It presents a brief history of the Dadeshkelians' princely house and the cultural, educational and scientific contribution of some representatives of the Dadeshkelians' family. The existing historical data about the residences have been studied and the modern situation has been identified. The Dadeshkelians' residences are part of the Georgian cultural heritage. Their protection requires a long-term perspective.
