The Embassy
One of the oldest African missions in Germany — a history that begins with Kenya's independence itself.
Kenya opened her embassy in Bonn in 1964, a year after independence — one of the oldest African missions in Germany. On 18 December 2000, the Embassy moved to Berlin, following the relocation of the Federal capital.
The Mission is also concurrently accredited to the Czech Republic and Poland, representing Kenya's interests across diplomacy, trade, tourism, culture and citizen welfare.
