Summary edit

Description
Afrikaans: Aanwysingsbord deur die Nasionale Museums van Kenia, by die Portugese kapel in Malindi, Kenia
Die Portugese kapel in Malindi is in die 15de eeu deur die Portugese gebou. In 1542, tydens sy seetog na Indië, het St Francis Xavier twee van sy matrose in die aanliggende begraafplaas begrawe. Nadat die Portugese Malindi in 1593 verlaat het, was die kapel verlate totdat die Britte in 1893 opgedaag het. Die eerste Britse Malindi-distrikskommissaris, mnr. J. Bell Smith, is in 1894 hier begrawe, waarna die kerkhof af en toe tot en met 1958 gebruik is.

The Portuguese chapel in Malindi was built by the Portuguese in the 15th century. In 1542, during his journey to India, St. Francis Xavier buried two of his sailors in the adjoining graveyard. After the Portuguese left Malindi in 1593, the chapel was deserted until the British arrived in 1893. The first British Malindi District Commissioner, Mr. J. Bell Smith, was buried here in 1894, whereafter the graveyard has been used occasionally until 1958.
