Nazi Train Filled With Gold, Tresures Found In Poland, Two Men Claim
Nazi gold has been discovered by two men in Poland and they only want a fraction of the value in recompense.
According to the BBC, two men claimed they found a Nazi train full of gold and treasure in south west Poland. A law firm was contacted by the two men, who are German and Polish, yesterday claiming that they discovered the armored train below the streets of Walbrzych.
Reports state the two men who discovered the train want 10 percent of the value of the train's content. Unless these conditions are met, they will not reveal the train's location.
Walbrzych's local leader Roman Szelemej is very skeptical about the claim but will monitor the news.
"The lawyers, the army, the police and the fire brigade are dealing with this," Marika Tokarska, an official at the Walbrzych district council stated.
"The area has never been excavated before and we don't know what we might find." she added.
According to CNN, local historian Joanna Lamparska told a local Polish station that the claim has to be backed up my evidence. She stated: "In my opinion, perhaps the person who reported this pointed officials to a different place from the other train."
She also stated that the train could present a number amount of dangers including unexploded bombs and machine guns. If the claim is true, years of methane build-up could create an explosion if officials are going to excavate the site.
Legend has it that in May 1945 a Nazi armored train was loaded with gold and treasures disappeared into the complex underground system under the Owl Mountains. The train might be linked to the Nazis and could shed some light on the complex underground system.
It is not known if the claim is a hoax. Officials are expected to look into the Nazi claim.
