In 1889
The first ascent of Mount Kilimanjaro was made by Hans Meyer and Ludwig Purtscheller in 1889.The first known successful climbers were Hans Meyer, Ludwig Purtscheller and their guide Yohanas Kinyala Lauwo. On October 6, 1889, Meyer and Purtscheller reached the highest point of Kibo, the tallest of three volcanic cones on Kilimanjaro. The first to the summit was Hans Meyer, followed by Purtscheller.-The second tallest cone, Mawenzi, was not climbed until July 29, 1912, by the German climbers Edward Oehler and Fritz Klute.
Between 1960 and 1965 Norman Myers led a number of ascents of Kilimanjaro and Mount Kenya and in February 1963 he held the record for the fastest ascent of the former. This is based on an email he sent me.

Hans Meyer was the first European to conquer Kilimanjaro. But nowadays practically every person can do that! Climbing skills are not necessary.

In 1889 Hans Meyer returned to Kilimanjaro with the celebrated Austrian mountaineer Ludwig Purtscheller for a third attempt. Their climbing team included two local headmen, nine porters, a cook, and a guide. The success of this attempt, which started on foot from Mombasa, was based on the establishment of many campsites with food supplies so that multiple attempts at the top could be made without having to descend too far. Meyer and Purtscheller pushed to near the crater rim on October 3, but turned around exhausted from hacking footsteps in the icy slope. Three days later they reached the highest summit on the southern rim of the crater on Purtscheller's 40th birthday, October 6, 1889.
