THE "CAMARES" PAPER POSTCARD

Did you know...?

The most identifiable and impressing monument in Kavala is the big arcade structured aqueduct, know as "camares". "Camares" were made in Ibrahim Pasha funding, during 1520-1530. This innovative work built out of local granite and plinthos. It was a sort of aqueduct, 270m. long and 25m. tall, that supplied the city with water until the early 20th century providing the means of growth for the local society.
