    Leven House est une grande maison du vieux Mombasa, qui doit son nom \u00e0 un navire britannique qui accosta \u00e0 Mombasa en 1824 pour abolir l\u2019esclavage et prot\u00e9ger les Mazrui, famille qui gouvernait Mombasa et qui craignait pour son ind\u00e9pendance face aux attaques de la flotte omanaise. Leven House fut rachet\u00e9e en 1837 par Sayyid Sa\u00efd, Sultan de Zanzibar. Elle logea plusieurs missionnaires (Krapf en 1844, Rebman), des explorateurs (Burton, Speke) ainsi que des administrateurs (Premier Consul britannique en 1884). Elle passa ensuite aux mains de M. G.S. Mackenzie, administrateur de la Imperial British East Africa Company en 1891, avant d\u2019appartenir \u00e0 l\u2019administration coloniale en 1895. La maison servit \u00e9galement de consulat d\u2019Allemagne entre 1908 et 1928. Leven House, inscrite au patrimoine national, est finalement achet\u00e9e dans un \u00e9tat de d\u00e9labrement avanc\u00e9 par les mus\u00e9es du Kenya en 2000.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    CRAterre a apport\u00e9 son soutien technique \u00e0 ce projet de revitalisation d\u00e8s 2001. La maison pr\u00e9sentait de graves pathologies et les planchers avaient commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 s\u2019effondrer. Acquise en 2000 par le \u00ab\u00a0National Museums of Kenya\u00a0\u00bb, elle fut choisie comme site d\u2019exercice pour le cours r\u00e9gional Africa 2009, ce qui permit d\u2019\u00e9laborer un plan de gestion avec la population ainsi qu\u2019une strat\u00e9gie de sauvegarde utilis\u00e9e pour lever des fonds.<\/p>\n

    Les premiers travaux de nettoyage et de stabilisation de la structure d\u00e9marr\u00e8rent en 2002, gr\u00e2ce au soutien de l\u2019ambassade de France, du programme Africa 2009 et de la Division du patrimoine de l\u2019UNESCO. La menace d\u2019\u00e9croulement \u00e9tant \u00e9cart\u00e9e, un vaste programme de r\u00e9habilitation et de mise en valeur du site fut \u00e9labor\u00e9 en 2003 avec les parties prenantes de la vieille ville. Les nombreuses discussions avec des repr\u00e9sentants de groupes sociaux et associations des habitants de la vieille ville aboutirent \u00e0 un partage du b\u00e2timent en plusieurs activit\u00e9s cr\u00e9atrices d\u2019emploi et d\u2019activit\u00e9s pour le quartier.<\/p>\n

    La restauration s\u2019\u00e9tala de 2005 \u00e0 2008, et permit d\u2019employer plus de 70 personnes : charpentiers, ma\u00e7ons, \u00e9lectriciens, plombiers, peintres et ouvriers. Chaque \u00e9tape des travaux s\u2019est fait dans le respect des normes internationales de conservation et des techniques traditionnelles de construction. Un ma\u00e7on retrait\u00e9 de Lamu, Fundi Salim Mohamed, dirigeait l\u2019\u00e9quipe d\u2019artisans, et a pu transmettre ses savoirs \u00e0 des jeunes ma\u00e7ons de la vieille ville pendant les 4 ann\u00e9es de chantier.<\/p>\n

    Leven house is now divided between accommodation for researchers and visitors, offices for MOTCO (Mombasa Old Town Conservation Office), a multi-purpose room for various activities, and a teahouse\/restaurant on the first floor.<\/p>\n

    Au-del\u00e0, le projet a \u00e9t\u00e9 mis \u00e0 profit pour former des techniciens et un groupe d\u2019artisans qui ma\u00eetrisent les normes internationales de restauration.
    En 2009, un projet compl\u00e9mentaire de signal\u00e9tique \u00e9labor\u00e9 avec les guides de la vieille ville et la publication d\u2019un livret promotionnel ont permis de mieux faire conna\u00eetre Mombasa aux visiteurs.<\/p>\n
