Hidden Gem - Jaekel House

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.

Beautiful Building & Garden
Jaekel house is a beautiful building surrounded by lovely gardens. The mini-museum inside is filled with historical items that showed me what life in Nigeria was like back in the old days. It’s really amazing how this colonial building has been restored and preserved. The area is surrounded by similar old buildings, hopefully the same can be done for them and we can preserve our old architecture.
