Verinopolis was a city in the late Roman province of Galatia Prima. Its ruins are near present-day Köhne in Turkey.
The city was named in honour of Verina, mother-in-law of the Emperor Zeno. Ramsay (Asia Minor [London, 1890], 247) and Anderson (Studia Pontica [Brussels, 1903], 25) say that Verinopolis is the Byzantine name of Evagina, a station described by the Tabula Peutingeriana (X, I) and by Ptolemy (V, iv, 7) under the altered name of Phubagina.
Verinopolis became the seat of a Christian bishop, a suffragan of Ancyra, the capital and metropolitan see of the province.
Le Quien mentions three bishops:
The diocese was named in the Ecthesis of Pseudo-Epiphanius in 640; again, under the name of a nearby location, Stauros, in the Notitiae Episcopatuum of Leo the Philosopher; and again in the Notitiae of Constantine Porphyrogenitus in about 940.
Verinopolis is included in the Catholic Church's list of titular sees.| In the 19th and early 20th centuries, it was listed under the mistaken name of Uranopolis, not to be confused with the city of Uranopolis in Macedonia.
