Knight Alley

            Zwischen dem Großmeisterpalast und der Kirche Panagia tou Kastrou erstreckt sich mit der Odos Ippoton bzw. Ritterstraße auf eine Länge von etwa 250 Metern eine der wohl besterhaltenen mittelalterlichen Straßen Europas.
Hier reihen sich einige imposante Gebäude aneinander, die alle einheitlich aus ockerfarbenem Stein errichtet wurden und größtenteils aus dem 15. und 16. Jahrhundert stammen, als Rhodos der Hauptsitz des Johanniterordens.

Between the Palace of the Grand Masters and the Church of Panagia tou Kastrou, the Odos Ippoton or Street of the Knights, one of the best-preserved medieval streets in Europe, stretches for about 250 meters.
Here are a number of imposing buildings, all of the same ocher stone, dating mostly from the 15th and 16th centuries, when Rhodes was the headquarters of the Order of Saint John
