A replica of the hut where Lenin hid out during his stay in Razliv.
Lenin tried to make the best he could of things.
Two tree stumps served as table and chair.
Near the hut, a pot hung from stakes where tea was made.
For relaxation, Lenin and Zinoviev helped Yemelyanov mow the hay.
They even went swimming.
But at night mosquitoes made life miserable.
But there was nothing that could be done about it; you simply had to submit, remembered Yemelyanov.
Yemelyanovs barn, now fully enclosed over.
When questioned about the crime Lenin had committed, he couldnt answer.
After Lenins death, Yemelyanovs barn was declared a historic monument and a museum was opened in 1925.
Later in 1970 on the occasion of the 100th birth centenary of Lenin it was fully encased in glass.
Later an exact replica of the actual hut was also created.
In 1969, not far from the hut, a museum was opened.
