Medieval Rhodes & the Jewish Quarter: A Journey Through Time The Medieval City of Rhodes, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is renowned worldwide for its historical significance. Less known, however, is the Jewish Quarter that once flourished within its ancient walls. Our exclusive half-day tour, Medieval Rhodes & the Jewish Quarter, offers a unique opportunity to explore both the medieval legacy and the rich Jewish heritage of Rhodes Old Town. Your journey begins with a stroll through La Juderia, the Jewish Quarter. As you wander its narrow, winding lanes, your knowledgeable guide will share the history of the Jewish community that made Rhodes their home. Along the way, you’ll visit notable landmarks including Alhadeff Park and Alhadeff Street, named after a prominent Jewish family, the Square of the Martyred Jews with its seahorse fountain, and the Holocaust Memorial. You’ll also explore the Kahal Kadosh Synagogue, the oldest synagogue in Greece, and the Jewish Museum of Rhodes, which preserves the memory and culture of the island’s Jewish population. Next, step back into the medieval era as your guide recounts the battles and sieges fought by the Knights of St. John, which shaped the town’s architecture and spirit. Walk along the Street of the Knights, the best-preserved medieval street in Europe, and visit the 14th-century Palace of the Grand Master, once the residence of the Knights’ leader. Today, it houses a museum featuring medieval furniture, elaborate mosaics, and archaeological exhibits from Rhodes. To conclude your tour, visit the Archaeological Museum of the Medieval Town, where the island’s layered history comes to life through its impressive collection of artifacts.
