Top 10 Sacred & Religious Sites in Rhodes Town, South Aegean

January 13, 2022 Darleen Reid

The largest of the twelve Dodecanese islands on the Aegean's eastern edge, Rhodes is also its most popular. The well-preserved medieval city of Rhodes sits at the north of the island of the same name. High rise hotels line the northern and eastern coastlines. Small villages and resorts dot the island's other shores. Whether your interests are beaches, bars or ancient sites, Rhodes offers an abundance of all three. Authentic Greece can be found in the hilly interior of the 50-mile long island.

For a small charge, this Synagogue provides entrée into the remarkable life stories of the Jewish people of Rhodes. The interior of the Synagogue is beautiful with its pebbled floor and light filled interior. It provides a calm and contemplative space to reflect on the generations of Jewish life revealed in the adjacent museum.

The Church Of The Virgin Mary

Reviewed By L7768EQdavidd - Devon, United Kingdom

Thursday the 30th May we were out exploring and sightseeing in Rhodes when we came across this beautiful Greek Orthodox Church. It is situated a short walk from the Casino and Mandraki Harbour . There are a number of eyecatching features about this splendid building, the first being it's tall narrow bell tower topped with a cross. The red tiled arched windows in the roof of the building cannot be missed. There is also the large cobble stone courtyard at the front of the Church. The inside is rather spectacular with the ornate alter and it's icons, religious symbols and images. There is a rather large chandelier adding to its splendour. Very interesting Church both inside and outside, all together very beautiful. Admission to the Church was free, however, as a mark of respect visitors are requested to wear appropriate clothing when entering the Church. Definitely worth visiting when in sightseeing in Rhodes.

Cave Archangel Michael Panormitis

Reviewed By arrowisland - Bury St. Edmunds, United Kingdom

We walked into Rhodes and stopped by here on the way. I wear a st Michael pendant everyday so for me it was nice to visit here as is he patron saint of the armed forces and police. The views from here are beautiful and the cave is very interesting.

Ibrahim Pasha Mosque

Reviewed By R0zanaF

Visited the old town to look at its history. Found this lovely mosque, still in its original state, after finding the sultan Sulaiman mosque has been closed for a long time. We were let in to look around. Worth a visit if it’s of interest.
