Sükhbaatar's Mausoleum
Former mausoleum in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia
Sükhbaatar's Mausoleum (Mongolian: Сүхбаатарын бунхан) was a mausoleum for Damdin Sükhbaatar, leader of the Mongolian Revolution of 1921, and Khorloogiin Choibalsan, leader of the Mongolian People's Republic from the late 1930s to his death in 1952, in Mongolia's capital Ulaanbaatar, on the northern side of Sükhbaatar Square in front of the Government Palace.[1] The building was erected after Choibalsan's death during the socialist era, and removed in 2005 to make place for a structure dedicated to Genghis Khan. The mausoleum resembled the shape of Lenin's Mausoleum but differed in color.[2] The mausoleum was never opened for public visits.
