Summary edit

Description

This is across from the Museum of Communism.

Lee Harvey Oswald, the person who assassinated President J.F. Kennedy, once lived here. He had defected to Russia but was moved to Minsk where he worked as a metal lathe operator. He was given a rent-subsidized, fully furnished studio apartment in a prestigious building - shown here. He did not like it here and applied to the U.S. Embassy to return to the United States. He returned to the USA on June 1, 1962 with his wife and child. On November 22, 1963 he assassinated the 35th President of the United States, John F. Kennedy.

It was our bus driver that pointed the apartment out but the tour guide did not even mention it to us until the driver did.
