(Local Name: Lefkosía - Ayía Sophía) In the Turkish-occupied part of Nicosia are the Gothic St Sophia's Cathedral (13th century), in which the kings of Cyprus were crowned (now the Selimiye Mosque), and other medieval buildings.

St Sophia's was one of the many Christian sites in Cyprus that was plundered by Turkish troops when they invaded Cyprus.

No artifacts remain in the cathedral.
