'town of the farm' Egyptian Arabic pronunciation: [kɑfɾ eddɑwˈwɑːɾ]) is a major industrial city and municipality on the Nile Delta in the Beheira Governorate of northern Egypt.

In the early months of the Egyptian Revolution of 1952, Kafr El Dawwar was the scene of industrial action that resulted in death sentences for two leaders of the strike.

[3] In September 1984, protests broke out in Kafr El Dawwar over efforts by Hosni Mubarak, Egypt's President, to raise food prices during a period of wage decreases.

In response, security forces fired rubber bullets and tear gas, killing three persons at a milling plant, and injuring dozens more.
