Kenya National Archives

Housed in a former bank building on Moi Avenue, this institution safeguards Kenya's documentary heritage and displays a collection of African art, artefacts and photographs assembled over decades. The ground-floor galleries hold masks, carvings, textiles and historical records, while upper floors serve researchers. Its location opposite a busy transport hub makes it a familiar downtown landmark. The archives combine the roles of records repository and public museum, offering a compact survey of the country's history.
