Baden-Powell grave, Historical burial site in Nyeri County, Kenya.

Baden-Powell's grave is a monument within the grounds of Saint Peter's Cemetery in the Nyeri County highlands, where his wife's ashes also rest. The gravestone bears a simple symbol—a circle with a centered dot—reflecting his connection to the natural world.

Baden-Powell first wintered at the Outspan Hotel in Nyeri, run by his friend Eric Sherbrooke Walker, and his will required burial there rather than in the tomb reserved for him at Westminster Abbey. He died on 8 January 1941 and was buried in St. Peter's Cemetery after a military funeral. Olave's ashes were interred beside him after her death on 25 June 1977, and a memorial stone was unveiled at Westminster Abbey on 12 February 1981.

The burial site draws scouts from around the world who come to honor the founder of their movement. Visitors often leave tokens of their connection to the scouting community at this place.

The grave lies in St. Peter's Cemetery within Wajee Nature Park, near Nyeri and Mount Kenya. The site is a Kenyan national monument maintained by staff employed by the British government. Scouts and Guides gather here each 22 February for Founders' Day, when attendance is highest; the Daily Nation reports up to 50,000 visitors a year.

Baden-Powell spent his final years in Kenya despite expectations that he would return to his homeland, demonstrating his deep affection for East African landscapes. This choice made him an unexpected figure in Kenyan history.
