SUMMARY
A small port on the northwest coast of the Black Sea, inhabited by Romanians, Muslims and Germans, as well by Greek fishermen, seamen and merchants, whose origins were mainly from Kefalonia (Cephallonia). The community, which was established in the middle of the 19th century, founded a church which was demolished in 1959. Today, the city is a notable tourist centre. |
