August 7th Memorial Park

Photograph at the August 7th Memorial Park Memorial

The August 7th Memorial Park serves as a place of remembrance at the site where the US embassy in Nairobi stood. Situated on Haile Selassie Avenue, the park commemorates the tragic events of the 1998 bombings. Within the grounds, a notice board displays the names of those who lost their lives during the incident, offering a quiet space for reflection and remembrance. It stands as a focal point for remembering the significant impact of that day on the city and its people. The memorial honours the memory of all those whose lives were profoundly affected by the events.
