The Monastery of Stoudios, more fully Monastery of Saint John the Forerunner "at Stoudios" , often shortened to Stoudios, Studion, or Stoudion, , was a Greek Orthodox monastery in Constantinople , the capital of the Byzantine Empire. The residents of the monastery were referred to as Stoudites . Although the monastery has been derelict for half a millennium, the laws and customs of the Stoudion were taken as models by the monks of Mount Athos and of many other monasteries of the Orthodox world; even today they have influence.
The ruins of the monastery are situated not far from the Propontis in the section of Istanbul called Psamathia, today's Koca Mustafa Paşa. It was founded in 462 by the consul Flavius Studius, a Roman patrician who had settled in Constantinople, and was consecrated to Saint John the Baptist. Its first monks came from the monastery of the Acoemetae.
