Bunyoro-Kitara is one of Uganda's great cultural homes, with deep history, strong people, and a heritage that continues to guide the region today.
The Kingdom of Bunyoro-Kitara is remembered as part of the wider Kitara story, which once covered a large area of what is now western Uganda and nearby regions. Its history includes leadership, trade, cattle keeping, farming, iron work, and strong cultural systems.
