55.6 m
Scale anchored to a reviewed measurement
Uniform scaling uses one documented measurement; the visual contour is never deformed to fit a second axis.
Hagia Sophia (Current)
Hagia Sophia is shown in its current state as the Hagia Sophia Grand Mosque in Istanbul, preserving the Byzantine domed mass, Ottoman minarets and permanent buttresses while excluding temporary works. The documented 55.6 m measurement runs from the interior floor to the crown of the main dome and is used as an internal scale anchor, not as the height of the minarets.

Measurement basis
