Long before Topkapı or the Sultan's palaces, Constantinople's Great Palace was the beating heart of the Byzantine Empire for nearly a thousand years. This episode takes you inside its labyrinthine halls, ceremonial spaces, and hidden corners — from the Chrysotriklinos throne room where emperors received ambassadors, to the Daphne Palace with its private chapel, to the mysterious Lausus Palace museum of pagan statues. We explore how the palace complex evolved from Constantine the Great's foundation through Justinian's expansions and the Comnenian revival, and how it slowly fell into ruin after the Fourth Crusade, its marble stripped for Mehmed II's new city. Discover the Great Palace's lost mosaics, the legendary 'Hundred Doors,' and the strange fate of its bronze horseman statue. Along the way, we reflect on what it means to live in a city where the seat of power is itself a vanished world — and how much of Istanbul's soil still holds the bones of that world. #GreatPalace #ByzantineEmpire #Constantinople #Istanbul #Chrysotriklinos #DaphnePalace #LaususPalace #Justinian #ConstantineTheGreat #ByzantineArt #Mosaics #PalaceComplex #MiddleAges #ByzantineHistory #History #FexingoHistory #LostPalaces #Archaeology Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
