1. Christian legend holds that Jesus gave the Apostle St. John custody of His mother, Mary, during the Crucifixion. Since Mary was no longer secure in Jerusalem, St. John took the Virgin Mary to Ephesus, where she is said to have lived out her last years on Mount Bülbül. The House of the Virgin Mary is now acknowledged as a significant destination for pilgrims. Its spiritual significance for Christians across the globe has been reinforced by the visits of Popes Paul VI (1967), John Paul II (1979), and Benedict XVI (2006).

Following the legalization and rise of Christianity in the Roman Empire, Emperor Justinian commissioned the Basilica of St. John in the 6th century to honor the Apostle. The basilica was constructed over what is believed to be the burial site of St. John, making it one of the most sacred landmarks in Ephesus.
