The magnificence and beauty of this exceptional architectural masterpiece greatly impress the inhabitants and visitors of the capital. St. Sophia Cathedral was built by Prince Yaroslav the Wise in the first half of the 11th century to honor the brilliant victory over militant Pecheneg and to glorify Christianity. In Greek "philosophy" means wisdom. In fact, Sofia in Kiev has become a symbol of light, wisdom and victory over the dark forces. No other 11th century building can match the cathedral of Kiev.



It is located in the city of Kiev, Ukraine.



One of the most captivating buildings will undoubtedly be the Hagia Sophia Cathedral, the oldest church in the city, dating back to the 11th century. The view from the square is wonderful, but it is better to climb to the bell tower and contemplate the city, or to see from the nave of the church the mosaics of its 13th century dome.
