Bukumbi is a village on the south shore of Lake Victoria in Tanzania, situated in Mwanza Region.
In 1883 the White Fathers, a group of missionaries led by Léon Livinhac, established a Catholic mission called Kamoga at Bukumbi.
The location was chosen as being less disturbed by Buganda, to the north of the lake.
[1] In the late 1880s it was the location of the Catholic seminary headed by John Joseph Hirth.
