<\/p>\n

The city of Kavala was first founded by Thassian settlers in the 7th century BC and was originally called Neapolis.<\/p>\n

It was a member of the Second Athenian Alliance until it was conquered by King Philip of Macedonia, who founded Philippi (today’s Krinides) the first capital of Macedonia.<\/p>\n

In 54 AD, Paul the Apostle landed in Neapolis and founded the first Christian Church in Europe in Philippi. During Byzantine times, Neapolis was renamed Christoupolis, while in 1380 after the Ottoman Conquest, it took its final name, Kavala, which it still bears today.<\/p>\n

Kavala is a place endowed with rare natural beauty. Endless kilometres of coastline with intensely blue waters and white sand, together with the lush green island of Thassos opposite, and numerous historical monuments make it an ideal tourist destination.<\/p>\n
