Copper and bronze remains were found in the city, which is known to have been settled by Georgians in 3000 BC for the first time. In 2000 BC, the Hurrians took possession of the region by pressure. With the collapse of the Hittite Civilization, various civilizations dominated this region for a long time. The lands of Artvin province joined the Byzantine lands in 415 AD.

After the Georgians, Muslim Arabs and Seljuks, this historical city again came under the rule of various civilizations. Finally, in 1551, the city definitively came under the rule of the Ottomans.
