Kitchener's railroad formerly passed through the town, and the rail embankment is still clearly visible. The British had a district office at Delgo, but later downgraded it to a police post. Opposite from Delgo on the west bank of the Nile is the site of the ancient Nubian town of Sesibi where Amenhotep IV built a temple.
