The Lost ‘Wonder Of The World’ That Was Stolen By The Nazis | Myth Hunters

The Amber Room has been the number one target for many treasure hunters since its disappearance. Adorned with stunning amber panels, gold decor, and intricate mosaics, the extraordinary chamber was originally located in the Catherine Palace near Saint Petersburg, Russia. But during World War II, the Nazis seized the Amber Room and transported it to Königsberg (now Kaliningrad), where it was displayed in Königsberg Castle. However, as the war drew to a close, the Amber Room vanished without a trace.

Today, historians, treasure hunters, and researchers tirelessly search for clues to uncover its fate. Join us as we delve into the history, mystery, and ongoing hunt for this lost treasure.
