Kavala Archaeological Museum
About This Museum
People come to the Kavala Archaeological Museum not just to check a box, but to truly connect with the layers of history buried under this ancient city. You'll wander through rooms filled with treasures pulled from the earth, from simple tools of prehistoric settlers to stunningly intricate gold jewelry and marble sculptures that feel alive. It’s the kind of place where a single vase, painted with a mythological scene, can completely capture your imagination for ten minutes. Stepping back outside afterward, you have this profound sense of having walked through the entire story of this corner of Greece.
Collection Highlights
The Neolithic finds are fascinating for their age, but it's the classical and Hellenistic artistry that really stops you in your tracks—think delicate gold wreaths and expressive statues that have survived for millennia.
Visitor Information
It's easy to find at Erithrou Stavrou 17, right in the heart of Kavala, making it a perfect stop to break up a day of exploring the old town and the sea views.
Architecture & Building
The building itself is a handsome, modern-ish structure that feels clean and uncluttered, letting the ancient artifacts inside take center stage.
