The legend goes that the Avar khagan was debating wherever to end the siege or not after his Slavs failed to break into the port when, in the middle of the night, he gazed upon the walls and saw a ghostly veiled woman staring back at him.

The church interpreted this as a sighting of the Virgin Mary, among dozens of others during the siege.
