The story

You're standing at the Palace of the Grand Master in the city of Rhodes. Locals also call it the Kastello, from the Italian word for castle. Take a look at those heavy walls and towers. This is one of the very few Gothic buildings in all of Greece. It looks more like a castle from western Europe than anything Greek, and there's a good reason for that.
