In AD 327, Helena, the mother of the Byzantine Emperor Constantin, stopped by Konya while going to Jerusalem for pilgrimage, saw the carved sanctuaries belonging to the early periods of Christianity here, decided to have a sanctuary built in Sille, and personally attended the foundation-laying ceremony. Aya-Elena Church has survived to the present day through repairs over the centuries. In addition, there are also Turkish-Islamic works such as mosques, especially Taş Câmi belonging to the Seljuk and Ottoman periods, Hacı Ağa Hamamı, Subaşı Hamamı, fountains and bridges.
