Overview

Nguludi is a village in southeastern Malawi, several kilometres east of Limbe and Blantyre. During the colonial era it was renowned for its plantations. It is surrounded by Ntonya hills and village in the east; Nguludi (sic) hills in the West whose very bottom is anchored by Mwenye village 2; Nthanyiwa and Chatha villages to its extreme North; Tapara village in the south and Mpira village in the South west. A mission hospital known as St Joseph's Hospital renders both basic and most crucial health services in and around Nguludi. There is also St Joseph's College of Nursing which trains future medical personnel. It also has the biggest church for the Nguludi parish whose out-station churches are: Chitambuli, Mombezi, Nchocholo, St Theresa, Naphiyo, Likhomo, Njuzi and Kwanjana. The mission was established by Missionaries of Africa and the Marist Fathers in 1901. It was ransacked in the Chilembwe Rising of 1915. It also boasts of a small museum which is usually used as an out-station by the Department of Antiquities which is headquartered in Malawi's capital city, Lilongwe.
