St Sophia in North Nicosia, North Cyprus: Surviving Through the Centuries
The cathedral was originally quite grandly decorated with statues, a painted screen, choir stalls and paintings in the vault itself. However, the ravages of invasion by the Genoese in 1373, the Mamelukes in 1426 and two earthquakes in 1491 and 1547 all took their toll on the building and its contents.
When the Ottomans converted the cathedral to the Aya Sofya Camii in 1570, they stripped out all the contents, especially any remaining representations of the human form, so that the only remaining statuary in St Sophia’s is now outside. (A couple of tombstones still remain under the mosque’s brightly colour carpets.) Despite further earthquakes in the 18th century, the old building still stands strong today. The mosque was only renamed the Selimiye Camii mosque in 1954, in honour of Selim II, the sultan at the time of the Turkish invasion of Cyprus.

St Sophia: French style in medieval Nicosia
The foundations for the much grander French-style cathedral were laid in 1209, but the cathedral itself was not consecrated until 1326. Work on the great façade still continued after this date, as records show that the men working on it were granted an indulgence by papal decree in 1347. Even today, the towers are unfinished, and the flat roof (a peculiarity of Gothic churches in Cyprus) makes it less imposing from the side than many of its European counterparts.
