REAL PHOTO: Rodi / Rhodes, GREECE – La Casa del Balilla: Rhodes is the largest of the Dodecanese islands of Greece and is their historical capital; it is the ninth largest island in the overall Mediterranean Sea. Administratively, the island forms a separate municipality within the Rhodes regional unit, which is part of the South Aegean administrative region. The principal town of the island and seat of the municipality is Rhodes. The city of Rhodes had 50,636 inhabitants in 2011. In 2022, the island had a population of 125,113 people. It is located northeast of Crete, southeast of Athens. Rhodes has several nicknames, such as “Island of the Sun” due to its patron sun god Helios, “The Pearl Island”, and “The Island of the Knights”, named after the Knights of Saint John of Jerusalem, who ruled the island from 1310 to 1522. In 1912, Italy seized Rhodes from the Ottomans during the Italo-Turkish War. The island’s population was spared the “exchange of the minorities” between Greece and Turkey. Rhodes and the rest of the Dodecanese Islands were assigned to Italy in the Treaty of Ouchy. Turkey ceded them officially to Italy with the 1923 Treaty of Lausanne. It then became the core of their possession of the Isole Italiane dell’Egeo. The island was greatly improved (mainly the capital, called “Rodi” in Italian) under the more than thirty years of the Kingdom of Italy’s rule. Thousands of Italian colonists settled in the island, mainly in the capital “Rodi”, while some of them founded farm villages (like “Peveragno Rodio” (1929), “Campochiaro” (1935), “San Marco” (1936) and “Savona” (1938): in the Dodecanese islands was officially proposed the creation in 1940 of the “Provincia italiana di Rodi”. On 8 May 1945, the Germans under Otto Wagener surrendered Rhodes as well as the Dodecanese as a whole to the British, who soon after then occupied the islands as a military protectorate. At the Paris Peace Treaties, Rhodes, together with the other islands of the Dodecanese, was united with Greece in February 1947. 6,000 Italian colonists were forced to abandon the island and returned to Italy. The subject of this card is beautiful and interesting building by Manilo Costa, but also the building that over time changed the most and was made unrecognizable by the damage suffered. It was built as the seat for the Opera Nazionale Balilla, an Italian Fascist youth organization, and included a single-body structure on two floors that was 10,20 m high, a tower that was almost twice as high, and an external part closed using glass block. The ground floor hosted the hall of honor, the gym and the fencing room, with the related facilities, locker rooms, outpatient clinic, warehouses, and technical rooms. The upper floor hosted offices, the library, the meeting room, the trade unions, the caretaker’s accommodation, and then an empty space above the gym. The roof was flat. Furniture was designed and created by Costa, whereas decorations were the work of Carmassi. The building suffered damage during World War II and was restored in the post-war period. The building has undergone transformations and changes, as it first hosted a high school and today is hosting the municipal police offices. This Real Photo postcard is in good condition.
