Description
As empress, St. Ipomoni was noted for her pious works. She was pious and honored God and related with people in a godly manner. The philosopher Georgios Plethon writes that as an empress she was well known for her wisdom and justice.
Her husband (as a former emperor) became a monk with the name Mathieu. After his death she became a nun at the Monastery of Kira–Martha, taking the name Ipomoni (also Hipomoni). Although she was the former empress, she helped with all the jobs in the monastery along with the other nuns. She helped to establish a home for old people, with the name “The Hope of the Despaired”. The home was located at the Monastery of St. John of the Stone where the relics of St. Patapius of Thebes are also kept.
An early siege of Constantinople occurred when St. Ipomoni and her husband were exiled from 1390 to 1392. She died on March 13, 1450, three years before Constantinople fell to the Ottoman Turks. Her son, emperor Constantine XI Palaiologos, died in the final charge (although some say on the altar table of Hagia Sophia) during the fall of Constantinople on May 29, 1453, while many other Christians were slaughtered by the Ottoman Turk forces of Sultan Mehmet II throughout the city as well as inside the Church of Hagia Sophia.
