A priest (L) and a woman visit the Chora or Kariye Museum, formally the Church of the Holy Saviour, a medieval Byzantine Greek Orthodox church, on August 21, 2020, in the Fatih district in Istanbul. - Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on August 21, 2020, ordered another ancient Orthodox church that became a mosque and then a popular Istanbul museum to be turned back into a place of Muslim worship. Located in today's Fatih district in Istanbul, the building was constructed as a monastery in 534 during the Byzantine period. After Istanbul was taken over by the Ottomans in 1453, it was converted into a mosque in 1511, just like Hagia Sophia in Istanbul. Serving as a mosque for 434 years, it was converted into a museum by a Council of Ministers decree in 1945, after the Republic of Turkey was established in 1923. (Photo by BULENT KILIC / AFP)
