Kigali City Tower

Kigali City, Rwanda

---

Kigali City Tower is a modern high-rise complex in central Kigali and is one of the tallest buildings in Rwanda, making it a prominent feature of the city’s skyline. Completed in 2011, the development cost around 20 million US dollars and stands about 20 stories high, combining sleek glass-and-steel architecture with views over Kigali’s surrounding hills.

It is a mixed-use building that houses offices, shops, cafés, banks, and entertainment venues such as a cinema and rooftop restaurant-bar, so it functions as both a business hub and a social spot for locals and visitors.

Built on the site of a former bus station and developed by Rwandan entrepreneur Hatari Sekoko with construction led by a Chinese firm, the tower is often seen as a symbol of Kigali’s rapid economic growth and its shift toward a more service-oriented, modern urban center.
