The History of Hagia Sophia - the Church of Holy Wisdom. Be sure to visit a new addition to the site on the Opus Sectile panels from the Western Wall of Hagia Sophia.
The Church we know today as Hagia Sophia - or Divine Wisdom, its true name - was dedicated by the Emperor Justinian in 537AD. Through many vicissitudes Justinian's cathedral church of Constantinople still stands, its soaring vaults and amazing dome are a testaments to the human spirit, the engineering talents of its builders and divine inspiration.
