The Hospitaller Rhodes, 1520

Rhodes in 1520 is the Hospitaller capital at its polished height: fortified streets, naval trade and the eight langues of the Order arranged around the Grand Master's convent. The walk moves from the harbour and mole into the merchants' quarters and up the Street of the Knights to the palace and hospital, showing daily commerce, sea traffic and the island's mixed Greek and Latin life.

24 scenes, 16 streets, squares and views, 8 interiors to step inside. Planned from the Wikipedia record of Rhodes as it stood in 1520 (“Rhodes (city)”).
