According to the sources, the basilica was built as a cathedral in the early 11th century and dedicated to Saint Paul. In 1430, under Ottoman rule, it was converted into a mosque and became known as the Hünkar Mosque.
The mosque was abandoned in 1912 after the Balkan Wars and reconsecrated as a church. It was afterwards put to non-religious uses and then fell into disrepair. As of 2016, the building was undergoing renovation with a view to being reconsecrated as a church.
