Kavala, Greece
Kavala, Greece - Kavala is a port city located on the Aegean Sea. The Committee is partnering with Duke Homestead Tobacco Museum and Kavala Tobacco Museum.
Kavala, Greece has a unique connection with Durham. The economy of both cities in the 19th and 20th centuries focused on tobacco. Kavala was the port city for grading and shipping Turkish tobacco throughout the world, with much of it going to Durham's tobacco companies. Kavala also has a Tobacco Museum and we are partnering with Durham's Duke Homestead Tobacco Museum in this Sister Cities relationship.
