Rabai is a culturally strong community with their own language and customs. Rabai is also the site of the first Christian mission established in East Africa. A German pastor, Reverend Krapf came in 1846 and established St Paul's Church, built between 1846 and 1848.
Krapf was one of Kenya's first European visitors and Rabai became his base. Krapf had great enthusiasm for both Christianity and geographical discovery, which led him to explore Kenya.
A small museum, opened in 1998, documents his life's achievements. Krapf Memorial Museum features his original home and church, as well as exhibits of his early maps and books.
