Find More Cultural Events and Festivals In Greece...


When:  Annually Mid May-Late June, only in weekends. (2012 TBA)

Where:  Rhodes Island, Greece



The Medieval Rose Festival (only on weekends) - Μεσαιωνικό Φεστιβάλ Ρόδου is a living history event including all kinds of medieval arts and crafts, taking place at four different Castles on the island of Rhodes. Participants should be dressed in medieval costumes and use relevant equipment.

While wandering in the mysterious streets of the Medieval Town and the distant Citadels, we shall meet Fairies, Witches and Dragons of the Legendary Past. We shall discover the untold Heroic History, the Fables forgotten and the lost folk Tradition.

We shall become witnesses of Brave Battles and observers of the everyday life of another time, at a place that became the Last Impervious Fortress of Europe against the Ottoman Empire. Through the magical trip, back to the time, we shall live Tradition, History and Myth... The legend of Rhodes...

n a Medieval Festival! A cultural journey which shall excite thee...
 
[By: Anna Achiola, Creative Director of the "Medieval Rose" Association]

Greece - background and overview:

Greece achieved independence from the Ottoman Empire in 1829. During the second half of the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century, it gradually added neighboring islands and territories, most with Greek-speaking populations. In World War II, Greece was first invaded by Italy (1940) and subsequently occupied by Germany (1941-44); fighting endured in a protracted civil war between supporters of the king and Communist rebels. Following the latter's defeat in 1949, Greece joined NATO in 1952. A military dictatorship, which in 1967 suspended many political liberties and forced the king to flee the country, lasted seven years. The 1974 democratic elections and a referendum created a parliamentary republic and abolished the monarchy. In 1981 Greece joined the EC (now the EU); it became the 12th member of the euro zone in 2001.
