5.0 based on 2 reviews
Jaekel House, one of the oldest buildings located within the Nigerian Railway Compound Lagos, built circa 1900, is recognised as a fine example of colonial style tropical architecture. In a dilapidated state for years, the restoration of the building and extensive garden was completed in 2010 by Legacy1995, the Historical & Environmental Interest Group of Nigeria, with an upper floor Mini Museum.

i went to Jaekel house with my family over Christmas (2019). This hidden gem is right in the middle of busy bustling Lagos...it was fascinating. The colonial house was built in 1898 and it still stands thanks to the restorative efforts of Legacy1995 (Historical & Environmental NGO). The mini museum has many artefacts and it is a perfect location for any celebration. I learnt a lot about colonial Lagos and i look forward to my next visit. #Historical #GreatEscape #Tranquil #Architecture #Legacy1995

I first noticed this building when I came back for easter it was at night as I got of at the cms busstop I was so impressed by the sight of the building that I wanted to go back and have a look. I visited on a public holiday before the evening markets started so the junction was busy but not yet crazy. We didnt pay any entrance fee. The secruity guys let us in and we took a look at the cathedral and made some pictures. Unlike certain places my digital camera was not an issue here. I believe we spent like 20 minutes in the church. The pictures of the cathredal are best taken from across the street or perharps also from the bridge. They church had been decorated for an 80th birthday celebration so there were flowers and ribbons - making the pictures more personal

In the middle of the hustle and bustle of lagos, there is a place that breaths peace, friendliness, creativity and positive energy. Freedom Park is a project that should be an example reclaiming space in every city. You sense immediately the love that transformed this former prison and place of hate and misery of colonial times into a venue where everyone is welcome. The boys of the neighbourhood as well as the top of the artistic scene gather in this park, to meet, to hang around, to inhale the creative air, and to feel free. Reserve you day and evening, because you will be reluctant to go away again!
