The head of the German-Polish Foundation Schlesische brücke ("Silesian bridge") Roman Furmaniak called the possible location tucked away in 1945, the gold of Nazi Germany. The treasure value of 1.54 billion dollars, hidden in the Palace of the XVI century Hochberg in Lower Silesia.
The basis for such a bold statement was the diary of an officer of the SS under the pseudonym Michaelis. The notes named 11 places in Lower Silesia and Opole, where there is gold, Bank deposits and works of art from Germany, Poland, France, Belgium and the Soviet Union.
According to the First News, during the offensive of the red army the gold taken by the Nazis from Breslau to the Palace Hochberg, located 40-kilometers from the border with the Czech Republic. The precious metal was lowered to the bottom of a 60-foot abandoned well, which is covered by three explosions. With the treasure was buried witnesses the covert operation of the SS.
The head of the Fund Roman Formanek convinced that there is 28 tons of gold, and therefore called on local authorities to provide Palace security and video surveillance.
Note that the Palace Hochberg had already appeared in the so-called "the List of Grundman", which consisted of 74 secret stores of treasure of the Nazis. After the war, "the List of Grundman" were at the disposal of the USSR and Poland, all places were checked, but the treasure was not there.
Doubt is also a cause and the diary of the officer who is associated with the name of standartenführer Egon Ollenhauer. As in the military archives there is no information about such a high-ranking SS officer. In addition, although the Department of art history at the University of göttingen confirmed that the diary and pencil, the font dates back to the Second world war, the Ministry of culture of Poland followed this example.
