Church of Our Lady of the Castle
A Byzantine church later reshaped as a Gothic basilica and mosque now displays icons and medieval sculpture. Its changing form gives a compact view of Rhodes Town’s layered history.
Few buildings in the medieval city show so many changes of use in one place. The church’s Byzantine origin, Gothic reshaping and later mosque phase make its architecture a way to read shifts in the city’s religious and political life. The icons and medieval sculpture add a focused exhibition to the building itself, so it rewards more than a quick exterior glance.
What to look for
Byzantine origins remain within a later Gothic basilica.
The building also served as a mosque.
