inscription on Kal Kadosh Shalom synagogue, Rhodes

Kal Kadosh Shalom or Kahal Shalom is now the only remaining synagogue in Rhodes (there used to be four). Built in 1577 (5388 in the Hebrew calendar), it now houses a museum with displays about the 2100 Jews of Rhodes and the nearby island of Kos who were deported to the concentration camps.

 

This inscription in Hebrew appears above the door onto the street.
