Shameless Nazi Thefts Now Leaked

Revelations about Nazi looting art and stealing prizes.

Nazis — a nationalist group that controlled Germany through totalitarian means are infamous for their barbaric and atrocious war crimes in World War II.

However, no one is aware of the other mysterious secrets the Nazis kept. It was found years after World War 2 that the Nazis have, as the expression goes, way too many skeletons in their closet, or rather should I say, tonnes and tonnes of inexplicable items in their closets. Secrets so well kept and so abundant that merely listing 10 might not even suffice

Suspicions Surrounding Stolen Skeletons Surround the Nazis

Speaking of the English expression, ‘skeletons in the closet,’ the first Nazi secret is regarding literal skeletons. That does sound bizarre does it not? To elaborate, Chinese archeologists found human fossils while excavating the Joko Diane Caves.

These were not ordinary fossils. They belonged to a humanoid species known as ‘Homo Erectus’ that were supposedly short in stature, had scraggy hair, and dwelled on the Earth hundreds and thousands of years ago. This would have been a massive breakthrough for scientists studying human evolution.

Hence, the excavated fossils were packed in boxes and sent to a US marine base in Asia to be transported to America. Since America was the hub of scientific advancement at that time. However, somewhere over the Pacific, the fossils vanished. Since then, even Japanese spies have tried without success to track these valuable fossils.

The Nazis are suspected of foul play in this debacle and they may have stolen the priceless fossils. If that is the case, then their attempt at sabotaging scientific progress is for purely selfish reasons.

The Baffling Mystery Buried under Brothel

A group that prefers not to be named due to their connection to Nazi occultism gave an old diary, a mysterious bundle of documents a map to the Silesian Bridge Foundation.

The diary was written by an ss officer who called himself ‘Vonsteen’ and hinted at a massive wealth of gold buried under the property. This led SS palace brothel hunters to investigate an 18th Century palace believed to have been used as a brothel by Hitler.

The treasure hunters used ground penetrating radars and discovered a canister buried 9 feet under the ground. However, they have not received permission to excavate the area since it is a historical site. So there are millions of dollars worth of treasure sitting untouched under an 18th Century property.

History Teacher Stumbles upon Secret Stash of Nazi treasure

Sebastian Yertseven, a history teacher was helping to clean his aunt’s house situated in Hagen, Germany, when he made the find of his life. Hidden behind a wall, Sebastian found badges adorned with swastikas, a portrait of Adolf Hitler, and a German revolver. It seems that the Nazis upon their defeat hid their memorabilia in every nook and cranny of Germany.

Discoveries by American Soldiers After WWII

American soldiers came across an abandoned mine where the Nazis had hidden bags of riches and gold packed from wall to wall. Then, some slave laborers tipped the Americans off about another abandoned mine in the area of Frankfurt.

Here, they found 8,307 gold bars, 55 boxes of gold bullion, and 3000 bags of gold coins. The treasure today would be worth 6 billion dollars. This was such a huge find that Dwight Eisenhower himself visited the mine.

Smuggling Goods to Submarines

During World War 2, the Nazis used their German U-boats for more than just war tactics. They were known to smuggle gold and stolen artworks through these submarines as well and renowned treasure hunter Roger Miklos was adamant that he had found the location of one such treasureridden submarine.

He was convinced the Nazis had hidden almost 50 tonnes of gold and priceless artworks of Leonardo Da Vinci and Claude Monet in a submarine that had sunk off the coast near Turks and Caicos.

Some British marine treasure hunters found the ruins of a sunken ss Minden in 2017. Among the debris of the sunk ship, they found a sealed safe that contained gold bars worth $130 million.

Nazi Bank Behind Baffling Embezzling of Funds

Nazi-looted cash was discovered at the Credit Suisse Bank in an account that had been lying dormant for the past 78 years. Investigators were flabbergasted as to how the account could have amassed a whopping $1 billion of funds.

They also found a safe where there were documents with a list of around 12000 Nazi and Nazi sympathizers that had plundered and looted to add to the account.

The Horrific Enigma of Erwin Rommel

Erwin Rommel was a decorated Nazi field marshal whom historians suspect had committed many war crimes against the natives of Africa when he was leading the German Corps in Africa. The German Africa allegedly plundered African Jewish gold and property.

To support this allegation, there is a record of huge treasure being brought to Corsica in 1943. Rommel is suspected to have a hand in this plundering. However, no one knows where this treasure went when Rommel passed away in 1944. So, Nazi soldiers were not as morally upstanding as their admirers would have you believe.

The Intriguing Inheritance Case

No one knew who the enigmatic Gertrudis Sommer Ficher was except that she was a foreigner who had settled in the Denia region of Spain. She was believed to have fled to Spain like countless other Germans who fled after World War 2.

All these Nazis were offered asylum by Dictator Francisco Franco in Spain. So how could a refugee with no heir or will and no connections end up having what investigators found in Ficher’s safe at the bank?

They found Nazi crosses, insignias, and even Francoist memorabilia in her safe. She also apparently owned 3 properties in Spain and over $300,000 worth of stocks. I would speculate here and wonder if Gertrudis was part of another one of the Nazi schemes to launder money and funnel it into accounts they could easily access after fleeing.

Exploitation of Priceless Works of Art

Many European masterpieces were rescued and put for safekeeping in a small residence at a place called Shinawa in 1939.

2 weeks after the artworks were brought here, the Nazis took them all away. These masterpieces included the artworks of Da Vinci, Rembrandt, and Raphael. It is believed that Nazi politician Han Frank stole a lot of these paintings, each worth millions.

Then, it was after the Nazis fled Krakov after their defeat that Raphael’s renowned ‘The Portrait of a Young Man’ disappeared. Yes, Raphael’s most famous and irreplaceable piece of work vanished. I guess its whereabouts would be another Nazi secret.

My Impression

From abandoned mines to depths of the sea, secret stashes of Nazi treasure continue to baffle treasure hunters to this day. Historians, investigators, history enthusiasts, and archaeologists continue to unearth Nazi secrets even after almost a quarter of a century has passed.

How many more secrets do you think the Nazis kept? How did they get their hands on such immense revenues of wealth and gold?
