Hagia Sophia (Old)

The Hagia Sophia ("Holy Wisdom") was an Orthodox Christian cathedral found in New Constantinople of Basileia Rhomaion. Construction began on 28/11/18 and finished on 03/12/18. It was built by Sulphuric_Glue, with some architectural advice from SteveOwnsMC132.

The main structure of the Hagia Sophia is made of stone brick, polished diorite and polished granite. The interior has some wood for seats, the iconostasis and so on. It is a western church built in late Roman (Byzantine) style. When it was completed it was the largest single building on the server.

The Hagia Irene ("Holy Peace"), also in New Constantinople, was initially called the Hagia Sophia. It was renamed once the construction of what is now known as the Hagia Sophia began. The Hagia Irene was built in a similar architectural style, but significantly smaller.

It is not to be confused with the Hagia Sophia on the new world, a very similar building.
