| Property Info
Originally built in 1817 by Mohamed Ali Pasha, the founder
of the Egyptian dynasty, the Imaret consisted of a series
of inter-related buildings, including schools, a Mosque, a
Hamam, administrative offices and the Imaret itself -Dining
Facility-. It quickly became a recognized center of learning
throughout the Balkans, during the last phase of the
Ottoman Empire.
Mohamed Ali Pasha the founder of the Egyptian dynasty of
Fouats, donated Imaret to Kavala, the city of his birth. The
complex is crowning the hillside of Panagia, the citys old
district, offering stunning views to the sea and the
surrounding hills. The building is considered to be an
architectural delight blending the orient and western
influences of the epoque. The restoration works were in
full compliance with the cultural heritage of the monument
and the distinctive architectural details. The project was
under the supervision of archeologists and architects from
both the Greek and the Egyptian Ministries of Culture.
After almost a century of neglect, the monument has been
fully restored to become the first hotel operating within a
historical building in Greece. |
