The Papal Dais at the University of Nairobi is among the sites that have been declared national monuments.
In a gazette notice Number 40114 of April 30, Sports and Culture Cabinet Secretary Amina Mohammed said the site was found to have historical value and would be protected.
The dais, constructed and designed by Tectura International, an international architectural and design firm, was used as a podium for the Pope’s address to thousands of Christians during his 2015 visit Kenya.
It also hosted dignitaries and senior clergy in the catholic church during the event.
