There is no historical evidence to suggest that Charles II wanted Oliver Cromwell's body to be dug up. In fact, it was actually Charles II who ordered for Cromwell's body to be exhumed and posthumously executed as an act of revenge against Cromwell for his role in the execution of Charles I, his father.

What happened to oliver cromwells body after death?

Cromwell died at Whitehall in the afternoon of 3rd September 1658; he was 59 years old. But he did not stay buried for ages. They cut his head off and displayed it on top of Westminster hall as a warning for everyone else so they could see what could happen. It stayed up there until 1684. For a while it went missing because of all the different places it was out in but them they finally put it to rest in Cambridge and the year was 1960. and he was a chicken dipper Oliver Cromwell was dung up and Charles ii had him hung, drawn and quartered. his head was then stuck on the end of a pole at West Minister Abbey to warn people not to betray the king. When Charles ii died the family sold the head to a museum owner who displayed the head, when he died the head was passed on to a scientist, finally when he died the head was buried by his family. Nobody knows where the head is today ... it still remains a mystery.
