In the 12<sup>th<\/sup> century, Benjamin of Tudela<sup>3<\/sup> attests to the presence of 400 Jews in the city. At the beginning of the 14<sup>th<\/sup> century the Hospitallers<sup>4<\/sup> conquered Rhodes. Gradually the community diminished (earthquake, plague) and at the end of the 15<sup>th<\/sup> century, the Hospitallers expelled the twenty Jews still present in Rhodes. At the beginning of the 16<sup>th<\/sup> century, they brought more than 2,000 Sephardic Jews there, exploited as slaves. In 1522, the island was conquered by the Ottomans. Under their rule, the community thrives. At the beginning of the 20<sup>th<\/sup> century, the island was occupied by the Italian fascists and most of the Jewish<sup>5<\/sup> community of Rhodes, feeling threatened, emigrated to the Belgian Congo<sup>6<\/sup>. In September 1943, the Italians having signed the armistice<sup>7<\/sup>, Rhodes was occupied by the Nazis. On July 23, 1944, 1,673 Jews from Rhodes were deported to Auschwitz. A commemorative plaque, in French, is dedicated to members of the community who died during the Holocaust, but most of the plaques that adorn the synagogue are in Ladino<sup>7<\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Kal Kadosh Shalom<\/strong><sup>8<\/sup> Synagogue is the only one of the four synagogues in the Juderia<sup>9<\/sup> not to have been destroyed by bombardment. It was built in Kislev 5338 (Nov.\/Dec. 1577), the date inscribed on the fountain located in the entrance courtyard. It is the oldest synagogue in Greece. Two holy arches, as if symbolizing the two tables of stone on which the <strong>Ten Words<\/strong> are engraved, frame a door leading to a courtyard. From this courtyard one once accessed the yeshiva<sup>10<\/sup>. On the ground, a mosaic of black and white pebbles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\"><sup style=\"\"><i>1<\/i><\/sup><i> Roman decree, dated 142 <\/i><sup style=\"font-style: italic;\"><sub>AEC<\/sub><\/sup><i> and reported in Book I of Maccabees.<br><\/i><sup style=\"font-style: italic ;\">2 <\/sup><i>Rabbi, born in Tudela (circa 1130-1173), author of the Sefer massa&rsquo;ot.
