Mehmet Ali House, Ottoman mansion in Old Town Kavala, Greece.
The two-story mansion features traditional Ottoman architecture with separate sections for men and women, including a hammam and reception areas on the upper floor.
Built in 1780, this residence belonged to Mehmet Ali, who lived here until age thirty before becoming the ruler and founder of modern Egypt's dynasty.
The mansion displays period furniture, wooden cupboards, decorative fireplaces, and artifacts that reflect the Ottoman domestic life of the late 18th century.
The house opens daily except Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 10:00 to 14:00, with entry fees of 5 euros for adults and 3 euros for students.
A bronze equestrian statue of Mehmet Ali stands in the square facing his former residence, along with preserved fragments of his mother's tomb.
