Years: 1523 - 1523
The defeated Knights of Rhodes sail out of Rhodes on January 1, 1523, with as many of the citizens as choose to follow them, ending two centuries of defiance of the Turks.
Despite the defeat, both Christians and Muslims seem to have regarded the conduct of Villiers de L'Isle-Adam as extremely valiant, and the Grand Master is proclaimed a Defender of the Faith by Pope Adrian VI.
