Sükhbaatar's Mausoleum

Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia

Sükhbaatar's Mausoleum (Mongolian, Sükhbaataryn bunkhan), sometimes referred to as Sükhbaatar's and Choibalsan's Mausoleum, was a mausoleum located at Sükhbaatar Square in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. The mausoleum served as the resting place of Damdin Sükhbaatar, leader and commander of the Mongolian Revolution of 1921, and Khorloogiin Choibalsan, leader and marshal of the Mongolian People's Republic from 1939 to his death in 1952. The building was erected on the north side of Sükhbaatar Square in front of the Government Palace after Choibalsan's death during the socialist era. It was removed in 2005 to make place for a structure dedicated to Chinggis Khan. The mausoleum resembled the shape of Lenin's Mausoleum but differed in color. The mausoleum was never opened for public visits.
