Description

Begin your visit with a guided introduction to the Nairobi National Archives, one of Africa’s richest repositories of cultural memory. Your guide provides an overview of the building’s history and its connection to notable figures such as Joseph Murumbi, Kenya’s second Vice President and one of Africa’s greatest art collectors. Move into the public and semi-private halls where the African Heritage Collection is displayed—featuring masks, ceremonial objects, beadwork, traditional attire, bronze sculptures, and rare artifacts from across the continent. Then, dive deeper into the hidden collections, a curated selection of items rarely accessed by regular visitors. Depending on availability, this may include early maps and colonial-era correspondence, vintage administrative documents, old newspapers and political posters, unpublished photographic archives, and rare coins, stamps, and ethnographic notes.
