Archangelos is a town and a former municipality on the island of Rhodes, in the Dodecanese, Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform it is part of the municipality Rhodes, of which it is a municipal unit. Archangelos is located about 30 kilometers south of the town of Rhodes on the island’s east coast at an elevation of 160 meters. Its population according to the 2001 census was 5,500 making it the third largest town of the Island.
The town’s name derives from Archangel Michael who is also considered its patron. Numerous small settlements existed in the broader area of Archangelos during the Hellenistic era, others on the coast and others inland. After the 7th century AD the settlements near the coast were abandoned due to the frequent invasions of pirates and their inhabitants settled on existing inland settlements or founded new ones in more secure areas. Over time the various settlements of the area were merged in one forming the town of Archangelos.
