Answer:

Constantinople’s Theodosian land walls were the most formidable defense of the Middle Ages, never falling to enemy action until the final fall of the city in 1453, when Medieval fortifications fell to early modern cannon. But that doesn’t mean that Constantinople was never taken by a hostile force.
