The Church of Saint Sophia is a remarkable historic structure; seamlessly blending centuries-old architecture with modern culture and style. Located in Ohrid, North Macedonia, this impressive medieval church has stood the test of time and played a key role for many important cultural events throughout history. Built in the 11th century, this stunning structure was initially used as a cathedral before being converted to a mosque by the Turks. During its long and eventful past, the church underwent several renovations and restorations to preserve its beauty. Today, visitors can explore the awe-inspiring platforms and views while taking in all the iconic sights including the intricate frescoes, Gregorian galleries, and minaret towers that have become symbols of this historic landmark.
