Rhodes, GR Get Directions

Church of Our Lady of the Castle was most likely built in the 11th century.

It is located in the Kollakio quarter of the Medieval City of Rhodes and has been used by all different denominations and religions that have taken root on the island.

From a Byzantine church, it was converted into a three-aisled Gothic basilica with a transept when the Knights Hospitaller conquered the island, while during the Turkish rule the church was transformed into a Muslim mosque named “Enderum Camii”.
