Little Hagia Sophia, formerly the Church of the Saints Sergius and Bacchusis, is a former Eastern Orthodox church dedicated to Saints Sergius and Bacchus in Constantinople, later converted into a mosque during the reign of the Ottoman Empire.

This Byzantine building, with a central dome plan, was erected during the 6^the century and was a model for the Hagia Sophia, the main church of the Byzantine Empire. It is one of the most important early Byzantine buildings in Constantinople.

The database entry for Little Hagia Sophia suggests that this (older) building might not have been the prototype of the much larger Hagia Sophia because of "vastly different" structural elements that would be evident on a close inspection and comparison of both buildings.
