La Juderia is the historic Jewish quarter of Rhodes, a maze of narrow, cobblestone streets that evoke centuries of Sephardic heritage. At its heart stands the Kahal Shalom Synagogue, built in 1577 and the oldest surviving synagogue in Greece. Visitors can wander through the quiet alleyways, visit the small Jewish Museum, and see the remnants of a once-thriving community. The area’s distinctive architecture and tranquil atmosphere offer a poignant glimpse into Rhodes’ multicultural past.
