The Baden Powell Museum
About Us
Located along the Nyeri-Kamakwa road, the Baden Powell museum shares the same compound with the renowned Outspan hotel.
Named after Lieutenant Robert Stephenson Smith, popularly known as Baden Powell, the man who was instrumental in the founding of the scout movement, this is where his remains were buried together with his wife’s, Olive Powell. Scouts still visit the museum to pay their respects, so if this would be interesting to you, consider stopping by.
The guides at the museum are well versed in the history of the scout’s movement and will take you through a detailed explanation of the same.
There is also the Pax-Tu house, which served as the residence of Baden whenever he was around. It remains of great significance to date.
