What other religious group owned the cathedral of Hagia Sophia?
In 1453, the city Constantinople, which the cathedral of Hagia Sophia was located in, was under siege by Sultan Mehmed, a group of Islamic people, who wanted to turn the at present Christian city to the their faith. After the city's defenses were out of the way, and the rest of the city destroyed and pillaged, the Sultans came to Hagia Sophia, battered down the doors and began to pillage all the valuable treasures and took or killed those who were worshiping there or those who were unable to fight, such as elders and women and children. Instead of destroying the cathedral, the Sultans used it as their place to perform their Islamic rituals. For years they would dwell and rule the city of Constantinople. However, after years of ownership by the Sultans, who remodeled it to appear Islamic and added new rooms for more purposes, architects came in, remodeled, updated lighting, replastered walls, ornamented the ceilings, and, in 1935, the founder of the Republic of Turkey and the first Turkish president, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, transformed it into a spectacular museum. Today the cathedral of Hagia Sophia is visited by hundreds to marvel at its many splendors and amazing architecture.
