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 immortalized Karen
Blixen's book by the same name. The Museum was opened to the public in
