Mount Makulu Research Station

The Mount Makulu Research Station is an agricultural research station situated near Chilanga, c. 15 km south of Lusaka, Zambia.

During the 1950s and 1960s Mount Makulu was home to an expatriate community of notably English and Dutch residents and to the local African population.

Named after a local hill, called Mount Makulu, it was involved in various research activities related to, for example, grasses and silage.

It was a thriving if small community with a local tennis club built by the residents.

The nearest town is Chilanga, which has local schools and whose main industry is the manufacture of cement.
