Baden-Powell grave, Historical burial site in Nyeri County, Kenya.
The gravestone at Saint Peter's Cemetery features a circle with a centered dot symbol, representing Baden-Powell's final journey home.
Lord Baden-Powell, who died in 1941, chose this location near Mount Kenya as his final resting place, later joined by his wife's ashes in 1977.
The burial site stands as a testament to Baden-Powell's role in creating the Scout movement, drawing thousands of visitors from worldwide scouting organizations.
Visitors can explore the Baden-Powell Historical Gardens, which includes an information center with exhibitions about the scouting movement.
The grave location reflects Baden-Powell's deep connection to Kenya, where he spent his final years instead of returning to England.
