Karen
Blixen Museum
This museum was originally the home of Karen
Blixen, who came to Kenya from Denmark in
the early part of this century; the present
museum site is at the heart of the larger
coffee plantation run by Blixen between 1914
and 1931. The house and surrounding land was
donated by the Danish government to Kenya
at independence; the house was restored by
the Danish government and was used during
the filming of Out of Africa, which immortalised
Karen Blixen's book by the same name. The
Museum was opened to the public in 1986.Much
of the original furniture is on display in
the house, and combined with the beautifully
landscaped gardens and encompassing view of
the Ngong Hills, the Museum has continued
to be very popular destination for international
and local visitors.
A
Short tour to the home of the pioneer coffee
farmer, Karen Blixen - of "Out of Africa"
fame, is now preserved as a museum. A visit
to this museum provides an opportunity to
step back in time and gain an insight into
this remarkable woman's life. Views of the
Ngong Hills
can be admired from the beautifully landscaped
gardens of the museum.
The Karen Blixen museum is one of a number
of very interesting regional museums and archeological
and prehistoric sites of the National museums
of Kenya, and it continues to be an immensely
popular tourist attraction with the same words
