Review:
Once a medieval castle and now a museum, the Palace of the Grand Masters of the Knights of Rhodes has a fascinating history. Set on the site of a seventh-century Byzantine fortress at the highest point of the Greek island of Rhodes in Old Town, the 14th century Gothic structure served as the former home of the head of the Knights of Saint John, and has gone through surviving an explosion in 1856 to being the summer home of King Victor Emmanuel III and the former Italian Prime Minister Benito Mussolini. Now the palace is a magnificent museum highlighting Rhodes history and features paintings, artifacts, weapons, and books.
