After the Ottomans captured Rhodes in 1522, the Old Town acquired a considerable crop of Muslim monuments, with many churches being converted to mosques. Sadly, this peaceful little library, founded in 1794, is the only Muslim site currently open to visitors and, with just a handful of minimally captioned exhibits in its one room, there’s little to see. It can only be hoped that the pink-domed Mosque of Süleyman opposite, and the hammam nearby, will re-open soon.
