It is said that 10,000 workers were employed in its construction. St. Sophia Museum was formerly known as the Church of Hagia Sophia (Divine Wisdom). In the year 325, Constantine erected the first basilica built and a fire devastated it in the year 404. In the following years, it was rebuilt many times but finally in 563, Justinian dedicated the church once again.
