Lenin in Finland

Lenin had a powerful pull on our lives today and Finland is a part of that history. It was in Finland where Lenin hid from the Russian transitional government in Helsinki in the early 20th century. It was in the city of Tampere however where Lenin first met Stalin, at the Tampere Workers” Hall. The city was an industrial city and a perfect breeding ground for Lenin’s Marxist master plan. In the hall where they met is the fascinating Lenin Museum, a comrade’s paradise. Mementos, pictures and displays follow his career from revolutionary to first leader of a socialist state. Leave the over popular Che behind and get a Lenin tee shirt on the museum’s shop online.
