Hagia Sophia is a Late Antique house of worship in Istanbul that is officially known as the Hagia Sophia Grand Mosque and was once known as the Church of Hagia Sophia. Until the Latin Empire from 1204 to 1261, when it became the city's Roman Catholic cathedral, the patriarchal cathedral of the imperial capital of Constantinople, which was built in 537, was the largest Christian church of the eastern Roman Empire (the Byzantine Empire) and the Eastern Orthodox Church. It was turned into a mosque in 1453, following the fall of Constantinople to the Ottoman Empire. It was made into a museum by the secular Turkish Republic in 1935. It reopened as a mosque in 2020.
