Karen Blixen Museum

The Karen Blixen Museum, located in the center of Nairobi, is dedicated to the life and works of Karen Blixen, a Danish author and philanthropist who lived in Africa from 1914 to 1931. She is best known for her book “Out of Africa,” which was adapted into a famous film directed by Sydney Pollack in 1985.

The museum occupies the house where Karen Blixen lived and has been restored to its original colonial style. It features an exhibit on Karen Blixen’s life. Visitors can explore the beautifully restored house, which includes several rooms filled with memorabilia, artefacts, and displays that offer insight into her daily life. The museum’s gardens and the surroundings are stunning.
