The House of Mehmet Ali, built in the late 18th century on Kavala's Panagia peninsula, is preserved as a museum dedicated to the man who went on to found modern Egypt's ruling dynasty. Visitors can walk through the Selamlik and Haremlik quarters, the traditional men's and women's sections of an Ottoman household, each furnished to reflect the period. The house sits in a garden featuring a statue of Mehmet Ali by sculptor Konstantinos Dimitriadis and is open Thursday through Sunday.
