Hagia Sophia Church, Eastern Orthodox church in Nesebar, Bulgaria.
Hagia Sophia Church is a Byzantine church building with three naves divided by two rows of columns. The structure clearly shows the classical basilica layout with distinct arches and a semi-circular apse on the eastern side.
The building was constructed during the early Byzantine era and later underwent major transformations during the medieval period that altered its original form. These renovations shaped its appearance today and show different building phases of the town.
The church displays craftsmanship from its creation period and blends Byzantine building methods with local materials that you can see clearly on its exterior.
The building can be visited as part of the old town quarter of Nesebar, which holds UNESCO World Heritage status. It is easy to access when walking through the narrow streets of the historical zone.
The building combines stone and brick masonry in a distinctive way and uses different materials to ensure its long-term stability. This mixed building technique was typical for construction projects in this region and era.
