In the Northern Province of Gicumbi district, 80 kilometres northeast of Kigali at Mulindi w’Intwali lies the National Liberation Museum Park. This museum tells the story of the Rwandan Liberation struggle that brought an end to the Genocide against Tutsis. This struggle was initiated by the political wing known as the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF), led by its military wing, Rwandan Patriotic Army (RPA), from  1st October 1990  to 4th July 1994.

The museum illustrates sequence of events before, during, and after the struggle through visuals that include texts and artefacts. One of the objects exhibits the bunker which protected the then Chairman of High Command, now President of the Republic of Rwanda, H.E Paul Kagame. Other objects embody the Arusha Agreement, the Campaign against Genocide, radio Muhabura used by the RPF and RPA for mobilisation, likeminded events as well as initiatives. Visitors are always fascinated by the longstanding bunker that sheltered H.E Paul Kagame along other officials bunkers.

Highlights

  • Mulindi Liberation Museum & Tea Experience
  • Mulindi is a place where Rwanda’s history and natural beauty come together. It is here that the former Mulindi tea factory served as a strategic base for the RPF/RPA during the liberation struggle, playing a crucial role in efforts to stop the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi. Visitors can explore the historic buildings that once supported the liberation forces, including rooms used by key leaders and a cave that provided shelter during strategic operations. Beyond its monumental history, Mulindi is famous for its lush tea-growing landscape. The cooperative COOPTHE MULINDI oversees vast, vibrant tea plantations that blanket the rolling hills, offering breathtaking, scenic views. A visit to the Mulindi tea factory allows guests to witness the tea-making process first-hand, learning how local farmers, through cooperative efforts, process some of Rwanda’s finest tea—from leaf to cup. Mulindi is not only a symbol of resilience and leadership, but also a serene destination where history, culture, and nature blend harmoniously.
