And I promote the Russians or Greeks returning Constantinople to Christian rule.

[Ciaphas Cain]

There is a legend that as the Ottomans were ramming at the doors of Haggia Sophia, at the last moment the priests picked up the sacred vessels from the altar and fled toward a wall of the church, which opened for them and closed behind them. And so it was that the most important items for worship, like the communion chalices, were spared from desecration by the filthy Muslims.

They will remain hidden in the church, until the day when Haggia Sophia is once again consecrated to God.

It could have happened after WW I. Good article about that here:
