The Virgin of the Castle Church (Panagia tou Kastrou), one of the major buildings of the old town of Rhodes. Situated at the beginning of the Knights Street, it houses the Byzantine Museum of Rodos. Built at the early 11th century A.D, its architectural structure has a cross-shaped base surmounted by a dome, with the western arm of the cross longer than the other ones. Until 1309, when the island was given to the Order of the Knights of St. John of Jerusalem, it was the Byzantine cathedral of Rhodes. It was later turned into the Roman Catholic cathedral, an event also mentioned in a Papal bull of 1322.
