About

Murang'a is a town in Murang'a County of Kenya. It is the administrative headquarters of Murang'a County and is mainly inhabited by the Kikuyu community. Fort Hall was originally a British colonial trading post and administrative centre established in the early 1900s during the colonial period in Kenya. It was named after a British colonial administrator Francis George Hall. The fort served as a strategic military and administrative hub in the region. Over time, the settlement around the fort grew into a town. After independence, Fort Hall was renamed to Murang'a. The Mau Mau insurrection was notably strong in the area.
