From 1921 to 1927, Lenin's body was kept in a specially designed mausoleum in Moscow's Red Square. His widow, Nadezhda Krupskaya, initially objected to the embalming and public display of his body but later acquiesced.
During this period, Lenin's body was meticulously maintained, and his clothing was changed annually. This was done to ensure his preservation and to keep his appearance as fresh and dignified as possible for the public who came to view him.
The practice of changing Lenin's clothing ended in 1927, and his body was permanently entombed in the mausoleum. It remains there to this day, attracting visitors from around the world.
