Marx Memorial Library & Workers School

This place deserves a visit whatever your political persuasion. I met Meirian Jump, the director, in person. There are also lovely volunteers who make a hugely positive impact. Personally I was given a very impressive (and moving) tour. Unless you visit you will not learn an important part of international history. This is where Lenin actually worked. If you can't visit check out the website. I am an archivist and if ever I saw a place deserving accreditation this is IT!

(Translated by Google) They won't let you in the library. Tours are now only on Mondays. (Original) No te dejan entrar a la biblioteca. Los tours ahora son solo los lunes.
