Other Images from Around Rhodes, including
The Knights of Saint John

In 1306, Rhodes was sold by the Genoese to the Knights of the
Order of Saint John. The Knights settled on the island in 1309, and
founded an ecclesiastical state, with Latin and French as the official
languages, and the Grand Master of the Order as its governor.

The "Street of the Knights"
still preserves its mediaeval
posterity.
