In 312, while at battle, Constantine had a vision of a flaming cross in the sky at noon. He interpreted this as a sign that he should engage his include issuing the Edict of Milan, which made Christianity legal; working with Pope Sylvester I to establish the Papacy in Rome; and building the Old St. Peter's Basilica, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and the Arch of Constantine.
