Nazi Gold

Berlin, 1945. Während die alliierten Streitmächte die Hauptstadt des Deutschen Reiches bombardieren, schaffen die Nazis Reichsbank-Gold und Devisen aus der Stadt. Ganze Wagenladungen landen in Stollen in Thüringen und Bayern, wo später Hunderte Tonnen von den Alliierten sichergestellt werden. Doch ein großer Teil bleibt verschwunden und bis heute ist nicht vollständig belegt, wo der deutsche Goldschatz in den Nachkriegswirren schließlich landete.

In August 2015, two amateur researchers declared they had found a lost Nazi train buried in a railway cutting near Walbrzych, southern Poland. Better still, they believed the train might be loaded with gold, armaments or precious treasure, all left behind by the Nazis at the end of WWII. The claim sparked a global media frenzy. Locals have long believed that at least one train, loaded with looted Nazi gold, left the provincial capital Wroclaw in early 1945. But until now, no one has discovered what happened to it.
