Tito spent a lot of time in the House of Flowers during his lifetime, especially after divorcing Jovanka, during the illness and pain in his leg he requested that in case of death he be buried at the House of Flowers, as it was done after some controversy.

After his death on May 4, in only four days the winter garden was converted into a place of eternal rest, and Tito was buried on May 8 in the tomb-like underground room. Tito's funeral was attended by 211 delegations from 128 countries of the world.
