Che Guevara Mausoleum, Mausoleum and museum in Santa Clara, Cuba.

The Che Guevara Mausoleum is a monument, museum and burial site in Santa Clara, Cuba, where thirty revolutionaries rest. The complex sits on a hill at the western edge of town and consists of a large plaza with a bronze statue, an underground chamber and exhibition rooms holding personal belongings and documents.

Santa Clara was chosen because Guevara's troops took the city on December 31, 1958, at the end of the Battle of Santa Clara, after which Fulgencio Batista fled into exile. Construction of the complex began in 1982 and it was inaugurated on December 28, 1988, with Raúl Castro attending. Guevara's remains, found in Bolivia, were buried here with military honors on October 17, 1997, together with six guerrillas killed in the 1966–1967 Bolivian campaign.

The large bronze figure shows Guevara in military dress holding a rifle and looking south toward his former campaign grounds. The memorial follows the layout of a military camp with low buildings made of pale stone arranged around an open square.

The site stands on a hill overlooking Santa Clara and can be reached with regular bus connections from Havana. Tours are offered in several languages and help visitors understand the meaning of the displayed items.

The complex is oriented at 190 degrees so that Guevara's figure faces South America, reflecting his vision of a united Latin America. The 22-foot bronze statue shows him carrying his rifle rather than aiming it, and the sling he wore after breaking an arm is etched into the bronze without being worn.
