News Anchor: THERE HAS BEEN
A FRENZY OF ACTIVITY IN POLAND

AFTER THE SUPPOSED DISCOVERY
OF A NAZI TREASURE TRAIN.

Narrator: THE STORY
OF THE NAZI GOLD TRAIN

EXPLODED IN AUGUST 2015

WHEN, IN A REMOTE CORNER
OF SOUTHWEST POLAND,

TWO LOCAL TREASURE HUNTERS
DECLARED A FIND.

Reporter: TWO MEN SAY THEY KNOW

THE EXACT LOCATION
OF THE NAZI GHOST TRAIN,

GIVEN TO THEM...

Narrator: THEY CLAIMED TO
HAVE FOUND A HIDDEN TUNNEL

CONTAINING A TRAIN
CARRYING A MYSTERIOUS LOAD,

HIDDEN AWAY BY THE NAZIS

IN THE LAST THROES
OF WORLD WAR II.

Reporter:
...FILLED WITH TREASURES...

Narrator:
IT WAS A MEDIA SENSATION,

MADE EVEN BIGGER
WHEN THE POLISH GOVERNMENT

SEEMED TO CONFIRM THE DISCOVERY.

Piotr Zuchowski:
PERSONALLY, I AM 99% CERTAIN

THAT THIS TRAIN EXISTS.

Narrator:
THE CLAIM IS TANTALIZING

IN A REGION WHERE THE NAZIS
WERE KNOWN TO HIDE TREASURES.

[GUNFIRE]

AS THE ALLIES
ADVANCED INTO GERMANY

IN THE LAST STAGES
OF WORLD WAR II,

THEY WERE MAKING
INCREDIBLE DISCOVERIES.

Reporter:
AMERICAN ARMY INVESTIGATORS

HAVE DISCOVERED
A SECRET TREASURE TROVE

AT CASTLE VELDENSTEIN.

Narrator: LED BY THE FAMOUS
"MONUMENTS MEN" TASK FORCE,

THE ALLIES UNCOVERED VAST HOARDSOF LOOTED GOLD AND ART,

STASHED IN MINES, TUNNELS,
AND SECLUDED CASTLES.

BUT NOW TWO TREASURE HUNTERS

THINK THEY'VE DISCOVERED
ANOTHER NAZI SECRET.

SOME ARE CONVINCED
THEY'RE WRONG.

Man: THERE IS NO TRAIN AT K65.

Man: SO WHAT DID I SEE?
A MIRAGE?

Narrator:
IT'S A STORY THAT TAKES US

TO THE DARK HEART
OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR.

A CASTLE TAKEN OVER
BY THE NAZIS

AS A RETREAT FOR ADOLF HITLER,

A VAST SECRET UNDERGROUND CITYOF TUNNELS BUILT BY SLAVE LABOR,

AND THE HUNT FOR A GHOST TRAIN,
LADEN WITH GOLD,

DISAPPEARING INTO THIN AIR
IN THE LAST MONTHS OF THE WAR.

CRITICS HAVE ATTACKED
THE TREASURE HUNTERS,

BUT WE'LL SEE WHY
THERE'S STRONG EVIDENCE

THAT NAZI SECRETS
LIE BURIED HERE,

AND WHY WE MAY BE ON THE BRINK
OF AN ANSWER TO THE MYSTERY.

♪

THIS IS WALBRZYCH,

A FORMER MINING TOWN
IN SOUTHERN POLAND.

A FEW MILES FROM THE CITY CENTERIS A QUIET RAILWAY CUTTING

THAT MAY HOLD
THE KEY TO A LEGEND

THAT HAS INTRIGUED LOCALS
FOR DECADES.

THIS STONE IS K65,

MARKING 65 KILOMETERS,
OR 40 MILES,

FROM THE REGIONAL CAPITAL,
WROCLAW.

SHOWN ON THE MAP
AS A BOWL-SHAPED HOLLOW,

SOME BELIEVE THAT
HERE LIES A HIDDEN TUNNEL

THAT THE NAZIS CONCEALED
AT THE END OF THE WAR

AND THAT INSIDE THE TUNNEL
IS A TRAIN THAT COULD CONTAIN

A FORTUNE IN NAZI GOLD.

THE TWO MEN AT THE HEART
OF THIS SENSATIONAL STORY

ARE PIOTR KOPER, A BUILDER,

AND HIS FRIEND, ANDREAS RICHTER,

A GERMAN LOCAL HISTORIAN.

THEY'RE AMATEUR RESEARCHERS

WHO HAVE SPENT YEARS
INVESTIGATING THE LEGEND.

[SPEAKING POLISH]

Piotr Koper: I'VE LIVED HERE
IN LOWER SILESIA FOR 14 YEARS

AND BECAME INTERESTED
IN THE HISTORY OF THE REGION.

I'VE MET A LOT OF PEOPLE

WHO HAVE TOLD ME ABOUT
VARIOUS TREASURES, TUNNELS,

TRAINS, BURIED GOLD.

I ALWAYS THOUGHT
THEY WERE FAIRY TALES, A JOKE.

BUT LATER, AS I WENT DEEPER
INTO THE STORIES,

IT TURNED OUT THAT
A LOT OF THINGS WERE TRUE.

[SPEAKING POLISH]

Andreas Richter:
IT'S LIKE A MAGNET.

IT PULLS YOU IN.

Narrator: IN MID-2014,
PIOTR AND ANDREAS

FOLLOWED UP A TIP
TO CHECK OUT K65.

THEY STARTED SCANNING
THE BOWL-SHAPED DIP

WITH GROUND-PENETRATING RADAR
TO SEE WHAT LAY BENEATH.

Piotr: OVER AND OVER AGAIN,

WE DID A SURVEY AT THE FRONT
AND OVER THE OTHER SIDE.

THE MEASUREMENTS,
THE DEPTH, THE IMAGE...

IT ALL FITS TOGETHER.

Narrator: WHAT THEY WERE
SEEING UNDER THE GROUND

CONVINCED THEM
THAT THERE REALLY WAS

SOMETHING UNUSUAL AT THE SITE.

AT THEIR OFFICE, THEY SHOW
WHAT THE GROUND RADAR REVEALS.

Andreas:
HERE WE ARE ON THE TOP.

WE'RE GOING DOWN,

AND WE WILL SEE WHAT MIGHT BE
BENEATH THE GROUND.

Narrator: AS THE RADAR
PENETRATES THE ROCK

AND GOES DEEPER
INTO THE EMBANKMENT,

A STRANGE SYMMETRICAL SHAPE
SEEMS TO APPEAR.

Andreas: AND NOW YOU CAN SEE,
HERE IS A SOLID STRUCTURE.

IN NATURE, YOU NEVER SEE
SUCH SOLIDNESS.

IT'S DIFFERENT.

Narrator:
AS THE SCAN GOES EVEN DEEPER,

THE TREASURE HUNTERS BELIEVE
IT REVEALS A MAN-MADE OBJECT.

Piotr: IT'S LEVEL,

BOTH ON THE LEFT AND RIGHT.

THERE IS ONE LONG, EVEN LINE
RUNNING FOR 60 METERS.

IT LOOKS LIKE A CARRIAGE.

LOWER.

LOOK OVER HERE.

LOOK AT THIS HOOK.

IT'S LIKE A COUPLING.

LOOK AT ALL OF THIS.

LOOK AT WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE.

LOOK AT ONE MORE THING.

THIS IS AN AXLE.

IT GOES PRECISELY THROUGH
THE MIDDLE OF THE OBJECT.

WHAT IS IT?

EVERYTHING'S THE SAME BOTH ON
THE LEFT AND THE RIGHT SIDE,

LIKE A MIRROR IMAGE,

LIKE IN A CAR.

LEFT INNER WHEEL ARCH
AND RIGHT INNER WHEEL ARCH.

Narrator: THEY'RE CONVINCED
THEY'VE FOUND A TRAIN.

AND WHILE IT'S IMPOSSIBLE
TO TELL WHAT'S IN IT,

ANDREAS AND PIOTR
HAVE STAKED A LEGAL CLAIM

FOR 10% OF ANYTHING
THEY FIND INSIDE.

BUT THERE'S A CATCH.

THE SITE'S
NEXT TO THE MAIN LINE,

SO THEY HAVE TO WAIT FOR
PERMISSION FROM THE GOVERNMENT

TO START DIGGING.

AND THERE'S MORE EVIDENCE THATTHERE'S A WORLD WAR II STRUCTURE

WHERE THEY WANT TO DIG.

WOJTEK MALINOWSKI
GREW UP IN THE AREA

AND HAS FOLLOWED
THE STORY FOR YEARS.

[TRAIN HORN BLOWS]

HE'S CONVINCED
THERE ARE MANY OTHER CLUES

POINTING TO NAZI ACTIVITY
ON THIS SITE,

STARTING WITH THE UNUSUAL

BOWL-SHAPED CONTOURS
OF THE GROUND

AND THE AGE OF THE VEGETATION.

[SPEAKING POLISH]

Wojtek Malinowski:
THERE'S LOTS OF THINGS HERE.

IT'S AN UNNATURAL SHAPE,

AND THERE ARE NO TREES
OVER 70 YEARS OLD.

THESE ARE YOUNG
SELF-SEEDED TREES.

OVER THERE
ARE THE ORIGINAL TREES.

AND HERE, THESE ARE TREES THAT
HAVE GROWN AFTER THAT TIME.

Narrator:
AND RIGHT BY THE YOUNG TREES,

THERE'S A STRANGE
PIECE OF MASONRY.

Wojtek:
THIS IS NOT A NATURAL STONE

THAT ONE WOULD FIND
IN THE GROUND.

AND IT'S NOT PART OF A WALL.

IT'S MOST LIKELY THE KEYSTONE
OF A TUNNEL ENTRANCE.

Narrator: ABOUT 400 YARDS AWAY

ARE TWO MYSTERIOUS
CONCRETE OBJECTS.

SEEMINGLY MADE
FROM NAZI-ERA CONCRETE,

THEY ARE BELIEVED TO BE
VENTILATION SHAFTS

TO A TUNNEL BELOW.

AND NEARBY
ARE OTHER STRANGE PIECES

OF WHAT WOJTEK THINKS
ARE NAZI-ERA CONSTRUCTION.

Wojtek:
THIS PLACE IS INTERESTING

AS IT SITS ON THE MOUND
STRETCHING FROM K65.

THESE ARE OPENINGS
FOR DOWNWARD PIPES.

THEY PROBABLY CARRY POWER CABLESBELOW THE GROUND.

THIS IS TYPICAL OF OTHER
MYSTERIOUS CONSTRUCTIONS

THAT WERE BUILT
AROUND WALBRZYCH.

Narrator: THIS IS WHAT WOJTEK
AND THE TREASURE HUNTERS

BELIEVE THEY WILL FIND

UNDER THE STRANGE
BOWL-SHAPED DIP ALONGSIDE K65.

THEY SAY THE EMBANKMENT
COVERS A TUNNEL,

WHICH DURING THE WAR
WAS ACCESSED BY A SIDING,

RUNNING OFF THE MAIN TRACK,

AND THAT AT THE END OF THE WAR,

THE NAZIS DELIBERATELY
BLEW UP THE TUNNEL ENTRANCES

AND COVERED THEM
WITH RUBBLE AND SOIL.

AND HERE, PEOPLE BELIEVE,
LIES THE NAZI GHOST TRAIN.

WHAT MAKES THEORIES

ABOUT THE TUNNEL AT K65
IN WALBRZYCH SO COMPELLING

IS THAT IT LIES
AT THE CENTER OF A NETWORK

OF SINISTER
NAZI ENGINEERING PROJECTS.

JUST TWO MILES AWAY

IS A MAGNIFICENT CASTLE

THAT WAS BEING TRANSFORMED
INTO A NAZI HEADQUARTERS,

AND DOWN THE ROAD,
BURIED IN THE OWL MOUNTAINS,

A TOP-SECRET COMPLEX OF TUNNELS,

MANY OF WHICH
REMAIN UNDISCOVERED.

WHAT THE NAZIS WERE PLANNING

WAS TO TURN ALL THESE INTO
A VAST UNDERGROUND CITY,

KEY TO THEIR WAR PLANS.

THE K65 MARKER

WHERE PEOPLE BELIEVE THE NAZI
GOLD TRAIN HAS BEEN FOUND

LIES AT THE CENTER OF A NETWORKOF MYSTERIOUS WARTIME PROJECTS.

THE SITE HAS BEEN A MAGNET
FOR RESEARCHERS FOR DECADES.

THE MOST FAMOUS LOCALLY

IS 85-YEAR-OLD
RETIRED COAL MINER

TADEUSZ SLOWIKOWSKI.

HE WAS THE FIRST TO CONNECT K65WITH THE NAZI GOLD TRAIN.

HE HEARD STORIES FROM GERMANS

WHO WORKED WITH HIM
IN THE WALBRZYCH COAL MINES.

[SPEAKING POLISH]

Tadeusz Slowikowski: SO I WAS
HEARING FROM THE GERMANS

A BIT HERE, A BIT THERE.

THEN I PIECED IT TOGETHER

TO CHECK IF WHAT THEY WERE
SAYING WAS POSSIBLE.

Narrator: TADEUSZ BUILT A MODEL

BASED ON AN ACCOUNT
FROM A TRAIN DRIVER

WHO WORKED ON THE RAILWAY
DURING THE WAR.

Tadeusz: HE WOULD SHUNT
THESE CARRIAGES HERE.

AND EVERY TIME
HE WENT DOWN THE TRACK--

AND HE WAS ALWAYS CURIOUS,

BECAUSE THERE WAS A GATE HERE,
AND YOU COULDN'T SEE INSIDE.

AND HE CLIMBED
ONTO THE COAL WAGON

AND SAW TWO CARRIAGES
BEHIND THE FENCE.

Narrator: THE TRAIN DRIVER
DESCRIBED HIGH WALLS

THAT HID THE SECRET SIDING
FROM ONLOOKERS

AND SAID THAT
AT THE END OF THE WAR,

THE NAZIS BLEW UP
THE TUNNEL ENTRANCE

TO CONCEAL THE TUNNEL
AND THE TRAIN WITHIN.

BUT WHY WOULD THE NAZIS GO TOSO MUCH EFFORT TO HIDE A TRAIN?

TADEUSZ AND OTHERS BELIEVE
THAT ONE PLAUSIBLE ANSWER

IS TO HIDE STOLEN TREASURE,

AND AS EVIDENCE,

THEY POINT TO THE HISTORY
OF THIS AREA.

IN 1945, THIS WASN'T POLAND.

THE DIG SITE, WALBRZYCH,
AND ALL OF LOWER SILESIA

WAS IN GERMANY

AND HAD BEEN FOR CENTURIES.

THIS WAS THE SOUTHEASTERN CORNEROF THE THIRD REICH,

AND DURING WORLD WAR II,

IT WAS ABOUT AS FAR AWAY
AS YOU COULD GET FROM THE PAIN

THE REST OF GERMANY
WAS BEGINNING TO SUFFER

AS THE WAR SLIPPED
FROM THEIR GRASP.

IN 1942, ALLIED BOMBERS
WERE LAYING WASTE

TO THE GERMAN INDUSTRIAL
HEARTLANDS IN THE WEST.

BUT LOWER SILESIA REMAINED
OUT OF RANGE OF THE BOMBERS.

IT WAS A SAFE HAVEN

TO WHICH THE NAZIS MOVED THEIR
INDUSTRY AND THEIR TREASURES.

AND BENEATH THE ROLLING HILLS
OF THE OWL MOUNTAINS,

THE NAZIS LAUNCHED

ONE OF THEIR MOST AMBITIOUS
AND MYSTERIOUS PROJECTS.

THE OWL MOUNTAINS LIE
LESS THAN 10 MILES FROM K65.

AND IT IS HERE

THAT THE NAZIS BUILT

A TOP-SECRET AND SINISTER
COMPLEX OF UNDERGROUND TUNNELS

CODE-NAMED RIESE, OR GIANT.

IN THE DESPERATE
FINAL DAYS OF WORLD WAR II,

THE NAZIS WENT TO GREAT LENGTHS

TO HIDE WHAT THEY
HAD BEEN DOING HERE.

BUT WHAT HAS SINCE
BEEN DISCOVERED

REVEALS PERHAPS THE LARGEST,
MOST EXTRAORDINARY PROJECT

EVER UNDERTAKEN BY THE NAZIS.

LUKASZ KAZEK, A LOCAL HISTORIAN,KNOWS THE TUNNELS WELL.

Lukasz Kazek:
THIS TUNNEL IS 2.5 MILES LONG.

IT'S THE BIGGEST OF ALL THE ONESWE KNOW IN THE OWL MOUNTAINS.

[SPEAKING POLISH]

THERE ARE THREE HALLWAYS
PARALLEL TO EACH OTHER

AND SIX THAT INTERSECT,
MAKING IT INTO A GRID,

A LABYRINTH, YOU COULD SAY.

Narrator: CONSTRUCTION
OF THE RIESE COMPLEX

BEGAN IN LATE 1943,

BUT WITHIN MONTHS,

HITLER ORDERED
HIS SUPER ENGINEERING GROUP,

CALLED ORGANIZATION TODT,

TO TAKE OVER AND MAKE
THE WORK HERE THEIR PRIORITY.

ORGANIZATION TODT

WAS RESPONSIBLE
FOR THE THIRD REICH'S

MOST IMPORTANT
CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS.

THE AUTOBAHNS IN THE 1930s...

THE SIEGFRIED LINE,

GERMANY'S MASSIVE
WESTERN DEFENSES...

AND THE ATLANTIC WALL

ALONG THE ENTIRE WESTERN
COASTLINE OF OCCUPIED EUROPE.

BUT HERE IN THE OWL MOUNTAINS,

THIS VAST
UNDERGROUND CONSTRUCTION

WAS THE GROUP'S
GREATEST CHALLENGE.

SOME OF THE CHAMBERS
ARE SO MASSIVE,

THEY LOOK LIKE NATURAL CAVES.

BUT THEY'RE NOT NATURAL.

THEY'RE THE WORK OF HUMAN HANDS.

Lukasz: THERE WAS NEVER
A NATURAL SPACE HERE.

THERE WERE TWO HALLWAYS,
ONE ABOVE THE OTHER.

THEN THE CEILING WAS COLLAPSED,

CREATING MASSIVE HALLS
36 FEET HIGH.

AND THAT'S WHAT
MOST OF THE TUNNELS

WERE SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE.

Narrator: THE NAZIS LEFT
NO EVIDENCE ANYWHERE

OF WHAT EXACTLY THEY WERE
PLANNING TO DO HERE.

BUT EXPERTS BELIEVE
IT WAS CONNECTED

WITH PROTECTING THEIR
VITAL ARMS MANUFACTURING.

Lukasz: THE GERMANS WERE MOVINGTHEIR WEAPONS INDUSTRY

UNDERGROUND,

SO IT'S VERY LIKELY

THEY INTENDED TO INSTALL
FACTORIES DOWN HERE.

WE ARE 60 YARDS
UNDER THE GROUND.

AMERICAN, ENGLISH, SOVIET BOMBS

WERE NOT CAPABLE OF DESTROYING
ANYTHING DOWN HERE.

Narrator: WE KNOW THE NAZIS
WERE LOOKING FOR WAYS

OF PROTECTING THEMSELVES
FROM ALLIED BOMBING.

ELSEWHERE IN THE REICH,

ROCKET AND FIGHTER
AIRCRAFT PRODUCTION

HAD BEEN MOVED UNDERGROUND.

THE RIESE COMPLEX WAS BUILT
TO THE SAME BLUEPRINT

AS OTHER SUBTERRANEAN FACTORIESWE KNOW EXISTED,

SO THERE'S STRONG EVIDENCE
THAT RIESE WAS PLANNED

AS A MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEXON A MASSIVE SCALE.

Lukasz: HAD THE GERMANS FINISHED

AND LINKED
THE COMPLEXES TOGETHER,

THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN
A POWERFUL NAZI CITY.

Narrator:
ACCORDING TO NAZI DOCUMENTS,

280,000 CUBIC YARDS
OF TUNNEL WERE CREATED.

BUT ONLY A THIRD OF THEM
HAVE BEEN FOUND.

WHATEVER THE RIESE TUNNELS
WERE INTENDED FOR,

THERE IS NO DOUBTING
THEIR IMPRESSIVE SCALE.

♪

IN THE 70 YEARS
SINCE THE NAZIS FLED,

IT'S HARDLY SURPRISING
THAT LOCAL RESIDENTS

CAME UP WITH MANY WAYS

TO EXPLAIN THIS GHOSTLY,HALF-BUILT UNDERGROUND KINGDOM.

THESE CAVERNS HAVE BRED
A WHOLE GENERATION

OF CONSPIRACY THEORIES.

ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL

IS THAT THE NAZIS
WERE BUILDING A MISSILE,

THEIR "WONDER WEAPON,"

EVEN DEVELOPINGTHE GERMAN ATOM BOMB RIGHT HERE.

BUT ALL THIS WAS ACHIEVED
AT A TERRIBLE HUMAN COST.

THIS HARD GRANITE ROCK
WAS HACKED OUT BY SLAVE LABOR

IN APPALLING CONDITIONS.

PRISONERS WERE CONSTANTLY
EXPOSED TO TOXIC FUMES

FROM DYNAMITE USED
TO BLOW UP THE ROCK.

THEY WERE HALF STARVED
AND PERMANENTLY SOAKED

IN TEMPERATURES
JUST ABOVE FREEZING.

THOUSANDS WERE LITERALLY
WORKED TO DEATH.

MOST OF THE LABOR FOR
NAZI TUNNELING IN THIS REGION

WOULD HAVE BEEN SUPPLIED BY THEGROSS ROSEN CONCENTRATION CAMP.

OVER THE ENTRANCE,
THE GREAT NAZI LIE:

"WORK SETS YOU FREE."

EMACIATED PRISONERS LIKE THESE

CARRIED OUT
THE BACK-BREAKING WORK,

THE RIESE TUNNEL LABORERS HAD
THE POOREST LIVING CONDITIONS

AND ONE OF THE HIGHEST
MORTALITY RATES

OF ALL THE NAZI
FORCED LABOR CAMPS.

LIFE EXPECTANCY WAS FIVE WEEKS.

IF TREASURE HUNTERS DO FIND
A HIDDEN TUNNEL AT K65,

IT WOULD ALMOST CERTAINLY
HAVE BEEN BUILT

BY THESE SLAVE LABORERS.

ANDREAS AND PIOTR ARE KEEN
TO CARRY OUT FURTHER SURVEYS

AND PLAN THE DIG.

BUT THERE'S A PROBLEM.

THE POLISH AUTHORITIES

ARE TAKING THE CLAIM THAT
A TUNNEL EXISTS SERIOUSLY,

BUT THERE'S A FEAR
THAT THE GERMANS

MAY HAVE BOOBY-TRAPPED THE SITE,

AND NOW THE ARMY MOVES IN
TO ENSURE THE AREA IS SAFE.

BUT EVEN BEFORE THEY DIG,
THERE'S ONE MORE LOCATION

THAT COULD HOLD CLUES

TO THE NAZI GOLD TRAIN MYSTERY.

TWO MILES AWAY IS KSIAZ CASTLE,

THE LARGEST AND MOST STUNNING
PALACE IN SOUTHWESTERN POLAND.

NOW A MAGNET FOR TOURISTS,
BACK IN 1944,

IT WAS BEING REBUILT
AS HITLER'S FINAL HIDEAWAY.

♪

KSIAZ CASTLE IS KNOWN
AS THE PEARL OF SILESIA.

IT IS THE LARGEST
AND MOST STUNNING PALACE

IN SOUTHERN POLAND.

THE HIDDEN TUNNEL
THAT THE TREASURE HUNTERS

BELIEVE HIDES
THE NAZI GHOST TRAIN

LIES JUST TWO MILES

FROM THE CASTLE.

WHAT THE NAZIS WERE DOING HERE

COULD HELP US UNDERSTAND
THE MYSTERY AT K65,

AND THAT'S BECAUSE THE NAZIS HADNOT ONLY TAKEN OVER THE CASTLE,

BUT IN MID-1944,

THEY BEGAN WORKING ON TURNING
THIS INTO A HEADQUARTERS

FOR THE FUHRER HIMSELF.

THIS WOULD BE ADOLF HITLER'S
FINAL RETREAT.

AFTER STALINGRAD,

GERMANY WAS NO LONGER
WINNING THE WAR.

HERE IN THE EAST,
THE GERMANS WERE IN RETREAT,

AND HITLER'S EASTERN REDOUBT,
THE WOLF'S LAIR,

500 MILES NORTHEAST,

LAY RIGHT IN THE PATH

OF THE ADVANCING SOVIETS.

HITLER NEEDED A NEW HIDEAWAY.

AND SO NOW, KSIAZ CASTLE
WAS BEING REDESIGNED

TO HOUSE THE NAZI HIGH COMMAND.

IN THE EAST,

THE GERMAN ARMY WAS SUFFERING
CATASTROPHIC LOSSES,

WHILE HERE, AT KSIAZ,
NO EXPENSE WAS SPARED

AS THE CASTLE
WAS GETTING A MAKEOVER.

ITS BEAUTIFUL GREEN AND RED
ROOMS WERE PAINTED WHITE,

ITS BAROQUE AND ROCOCO FEATURESRIPPED OUT AND REPLACED

WITH THE NAZIS' FAVORITE
NEO-CLASSICAL STYLE,

MAKING ROOM
FOR THE GREATEST ARTWORKS

LOOTED FROM ACROSS EUROPE.

THE CASTLE MIGHT EVEN HAVE BEENTHE INTENDED DESTINATION

FOR ONE OF THE NAZI'SMOST INFAMOUS LOOTED TREASURES:

THE AMBER ROOM,
SHOWN IN THIS RECENT REPLICA.

THE NAZIS HAD STRIPPED
ITS GLITTERING PANELS

AND GOLD LEAF FROM
A LENINGRAD PALACE IN 1941.

IT IS RUMORED THAT THIS HALL WASBEING PREPARED TO HOUSE IT.

THE DIMENSIONS
ARE SAID TO FIT EXACTLY.

BUT THE AMBER ROOM
NEVER MADE IT HERE.

ITS WHEREABOUTS REMAIN UNKNOWN.

MACIEJ MEISSNER
IS A CURATOR AT THE CASTLE.

DOWN A LONG HALL HE FINDS ONEOF ITS MOST IMPORTANT FEATURES:

A BEDROOM
FOR THE FUHRER HIMSELF.

THE ALTERATIONS THEY MADE HERE
SHOWED HOW HITLER WOULD BE

AT THE HEART
OF THE NEW NAZI NERVE-CENTER

WHICH KSIAZ CASTLE
WAS TO BECOME.

Maciej Meissner:
THEY CHANGED EVERYTHING HERE,

BECAUSE FOR EXAMPLE,

BEHIND ME WE HAVE THE DOOR
THAT REPLACED THE FIREPLACE,

AND BEHIND THIS DOOR THEY WANTEDTO BUILD A BATHROOM FOR HITLER,

AND ON THE RIGHT,

WE'VE GOT THE DOORS THAT LEADS
TO THE EVACUATION ROUTE,

BECAUSE BEHIND IT
WE HAVE THE ELEVATOR SHAFT.

Narrator: WITHIN SECONDS
OF AN ALARM BEING RAISED,

HITLER COULD LEAVE HIS BEDROOM
TO BE WHISKED AWAY TO SAFETY.

Maciej: THAT... [KNOCK KNOCK]
IS THE ELEVATOR SHAFT

THAT LEADS TO THE UNDERGROUND,

THE SHORTEST WAY TO ESCAPE.

Narrator: A FEW FEET
ALONG THE CORRIDOR

FROM THE FUHRER'S BEDROOM

WAS A COMMUNICATIONS CENTER.

THIS PLACE WAS A HUB,

ALLOWING FOR EFFICIENT
COMMUNICATIONS

AND A RAPID ESCAPE
DOWN THESE ELEVATOR SHAFTS

IF THE CASTLE
EVER CAME UNDER ATTACK.

Maciej:
THIS INTERIOR, THIS PLACE

USED TO BE SOME SORT
OF QUICK RESPONSE CENTER

FOR HITLER
AND HIS CLOSEST OFFICIALS.

IT'S PERFECTLY CONNECTED WITH
ALL THE ROOMS IN THE CASTLE.

Narrator: AND CLOSE BY WAS
A NEWLY CONSTRUCTED STAIRCASE

LEADING UNDERGROUND
TO A NETWORK OF TUNNELS

HEWN OUT OF THE ROCK
BELOW THE CASTLE.

THE NEW FUHRER HEADQUARTERS
WOULD ULTIMATELY BE LINKED

TO THE RIESE COMPLEX
IN THE OWL MOUNTAINS

AND CREATE
A SUBTERRANEAN SHELTER

FOR 27,000
TOP NAZI AND SS PERSONNEL

SPREAD ACROSS
A RADIUS OF 15 MILES.

THE RESOURCES
THE PROJECT CONSUMED

WERE STAGGERING.

ALBERT SPEER,

HITLER'S ARMAMENTS MINISTER ANDHEAD OF THE ENGINEERING GROUP,

WROTE THAT
BY THE AUTUMN OF 1944,

THEY WERE USING
MORE CONCRETE HERE

THAN FOR THE BUILDING
OF AIR-RAID SHELTERS

FOR THE ENTIRE THIRD REICH.

TOP NAZIS QUESTIONED THE SANITYOF POURING VITAL RESOURCES

INTO THE MYSTERIOUS
UNDERGROUND COMPLEX,

BUT HITLER SPED UP THE PROJECT.

DIRECTLY BENEATH THE CASTLE IS
YET ANOTHER NETWORK OF TUNNELS

WHERE YOU CAN SEE
WHERE ALL THAT CONCRETE WENT.

LEOPOLD STEMPOWSKI HAS LIVED INTHE CASTLE GROUNDS ALL HIS LIFE.

[SPEAKING POLISH]

Leopold Stempowski: THE TUNNELSARE ENORMOUS, IMPRESSIVE.

YOU COULD EASILY
DRIVE A CAR IN HERE.

AND THAT'S PROBABLY
HOW THE INHABITANTS

PLANNED TO MOVE AROUND HERE.

Narrator: WORK UNDER THE CASTLEWAS FAR MORE SOPHISTICATED

THAN AT THE OTHER RIESE TUNNELS.

BUT THERE'S A CLUE
THAT COULD INDICATE

THE NAZIS WERE TRYING
TO HIDE SOMETHING HERE.

Leopold: WE ARE STANDING IN
FRONT OF THIS MYSTERIOUS WALL.

THE REST OF THE WALLS
ARE PROPERLY FINISHED.

BUT THIS WALL ISN'T.

THIS WALL'S BEEN CAST
IN A SLOPPY WAY,

WHICH ISN'T WHAT
GERMAN WORK LOOKS LIKE.

THIS SLAP-DASH SHUTTERING
RAISES SPECULATION

THAT IT CONCEALS SOME MYSTERY.

Narrator:ATTEMPTS TO DRILL INTO THE WALL

HAVE SO FAR PROVED INCONCLUSIVE,

AND THERE ARE MANY THEORIES

AS TO WHAT MIGHT LIE
BEHIND THE WALL,

RANGING FROM BODIES
OF DEAD WORKERS

TO NAZI LOOT.

BUT LEOPOLD HAS ANOTHER IDEA.

Leopold: THERE IS A THEORY THATTHE TUNNEL WITH THE GOLD TRAIN

WAS SOMEHOW LINKED
TO KSIAZ CASTLE.

WE DON'T RULE OUT THE HYPOTHESIS

THAT UNDER THESE TUNNELS
THERE IS A TRAIN STATION.

Narrator:
COULD THERE HAVE BEEN PLANS

FOR A RAIL CONNECTION
FROM THESE TUNNELS

TO THE MAIN LINE
A FEW MILES AWAY?

WE KNOW THAT HITLER LOVED
TRAVELING BY TRAIN

AND THAT NO FUHRER HEADQUARTERS

WAS EVER BUILT WITHOUT
GOOD RAILWAY ACCESS.

BUT THERE'S NO STATION AT KSIAZ.

SOME CLAIM THERE
USED TO BE A LITTLE RAILWAY

RUNNING UP TO THE CASTLE.

AND THE TREASURE HUNTERS SAY

THE TUNNEL THEY THINK
THEY HAVE FOUND

DOES HAVE A CONNECTION TO KSIAZ

BECAUSE HIGH-RANKING NAZIS

WERE FREQUENT VISITORS
TO THE CASTLE.

Piotr: BECAUSE WHEN
TOP BRASS CAME HERE,

THEY EXITED THE TUNNEL
AND HAD TO GO SOMEWHERE.

THEY HAD TO HAVE A PLACE TO GO.

THE CREW HAD TO BE SOMEWHERE.

THE TRAIN HAD TO BE
HIDDEN SOMEWHERE.

IT SIMPLY COULDN'T
SIT ON THE TRACKS.

AND TRAINS WITH OFFICIALS
KEPT COMING TO KSIAZ CASTLE.

Narrator: THERE IS NO EVIDENCE

THAT HITLER HIMSELF
EVER MADE IT TO KSIAZ,

BUT THE HIGH SECURITY
AT THE SITE

SUPPORTS THE CASE

THAT HIS SENIOR SUBORDINATES
CERTAINLY DID.

Andreas: WE'VE GATHERED
VARIOUS BITS OF INFORMATION.

THERE WAS UNUSUAL
CONSTRUCTION WORK

CARRIED OUT HERE
DURING WORLD WAR II.

THERE WAS NET FENCING
ALONG HERE.

Piotr: THERE WAS A CAMOUFLAGE
NETTING STRETCHED EVERYWHERE.

THERE ARE OLD
CONCRETE FOUNDATIONS

FOR THE SUPPORTS OVER THERE.

AND ACCORDING TO WITNESSES,

WE KNOW THAT THE WHOLE OF THIS
AREA WAS A FORBIDDEN ZONE,

EVEN TO THE GERMANS.

Narrator: FOUR MONTHS AFTER
THEY MADE THEIR CLAIM,

THE TREASURE HUNTERS ARECONFIDENT THEY HAVE NEW SURVEYS

WHICH CONFIRM THEIR FINDINGS.

IT'S DECEMBER 2015,

AND THEY'RE PRESENTING
THEIR RESULTS

TO A PACKED
PRESS CONFERENCE IN TOWN.

THE PLAN IS TO PRESENT
A TIMETABLE

FOR THE EXCAVATION AT K65.

BUT THE STORY
IS TURNED UPSIDE-DOWN

WHEN ONE MAN MAKES
A SHOCKING ANNOUNCEMENT.

IN DECEMBER 2015,

TREASURE HUNTERS IN POLAND
ARE READY TO PRESENT

THE RESULTS OF NEW SURVEYS
DONE AT K65.

BUT BEFORE THEY CAN GET STARTED,

THERE'S A SURPRISE.

PROFESSOR JANUSZ MADEJ,

HEADING A TEAM
OF INDEPENDENT ACADEMICS,

STEPS FORWARD TO SAY
THAT HE, TOO,

HAS TAKEN SURVEYS AT THE SITE,

AND HIS TEAM HAS DRAWN
VERY DIFFERENT CONCLUSIONS.

[SPEAKING POLISH]

Janusz Madej: WE'VE DONE TESTSAND CONCLUDE THERE IS NO TUNNEL

AND THERE IS NO TRAIN.

[CAMERAS CLICKING]

♪

Narrator:
THE MAN BEHIND THE BOMBSHELL,

PROFESSOR JANUSZ MADEJ,

IS A GEOPHYSICIST

AT THE RENOWNED AGH UNIVERSITY
OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

IN KRAKOW.

HE WAS CONCERNED THE SURVEYS
HAD NOT BEEN DONE PROPERLY.

Janusz: THE ONLY REASON
WE ENDED UP IN WALBRZYCH

SEARCHING FOR THIS GOLD TRAIN

WAS BECAUSE THE PREVIOUS SURVEYSWERE NOT DONE PROFESSIONALLY.

Narrator: THE PROFESSOR'S TEAM

USED TWO METHODS
TO DO THEIR SURVEY.

ONE MEASURED DISRUPTION

OF THE GRAVITATIONAL FIELD,

WHICH WOULD PICK UP
ANY CAVITIES UNDER THE GROUND,

SUCH AS TUNNELS.

THE SECOND USES A MAGNETOMETER,

WHICH PICKS UP IRON

BELOW THE SURFACE.

NEITHER REVEALED

A TRAIN OR A TUNNEL.

FOR PROFESSOR MADEJ
THERE IS A SIMPLE REASON

WHY THEIR RESULTS DIFFERED FROMTHOSE OF THE TREASURE HUNTERS.

Janusz: WE ARE TRAINED,

EDUCATED
WITH SCIENTIFIC DEGREES.

WE ARE CAPABLE
OF USING THESE METHODS.

SOMEBODY WHO HAS
ONLY HEARD OF GEOPHYSICS,

SOMEBODY WHO HAS ONLY
HEARD OF GEOPHYSICAL METHODS

SHOULDN'T USE THEM,

AND ESPECIALLY SHOULD NOT
INTERPRET THE RESULTS.

SURE, WE WOULD HAVE REALLY
WANTED THE TRAIN TO BE THERE,

BUT UNFORTUNATELY THE RESULTSDID NOT MATCH OUR EXPECTATIONS,

SO WE SAY THE GOLD TRAIN
DOES NOT EXIST THERE.

Narrator:
ACCORDING TO THE EXPERTS,

NO TRAIN, NO TUNNEL.

COULD THE ONLY GOLD TRAIN

BE THIS ONE
ON THE PROFESSOR'S DESK?

IT LOOKS LIKE
CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE

THAT THE TREASURE HUNTERS
ARE DELUDED.

IT'S A BLOW,

AND THEIR WHOLE OPERATION
IS IN JEOPARDY.

Piotr:
I ADMIT THAT I WAS SHOCKED

BECAUSE I WAS CONVINCED
THAT BECAUSE THE PROFESSOR

HAD SUCH GREAT EQUIPMENT
AND A DATABASE,

IT SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN A PROBLEMTO DISCOVER WHAT WE FOUND.

BUT IT TURNED OUT
TO BE A PROBLEM.

FOR ME IT WAS A SHOCK.

Andreas: YES, WE HAD A LOT
OF SPONSORS AND INVESTORS

WILLING TO HELP US,

TO GIVE US MONEY.

BUT WHEN THE AGH UNIVERSITYSAID THAT THERE'S NOTHING THERE,

ALL THE SPONSORS RAN AWAY.

WE'RE STILL GOING FORWARD,

BUT WE'LL HAVE TO FINANCE
EVERYTHING OURSELVES.

Piotr: SO WHAT DID I SEE?

AFTER ALL, WE DID SURVEYS
AND HAVE RESULTS.

SO WHAT DID I SEE?
A MIRAGE?

Narrator: ANDREAS AND PIOTR
ARE NOT GIVING UP.

THEY ARE SO CONVINCED

THAT THEY'VE STARTED
INVESTING THEIR OWN MONEY

TO PROVE THE EXISTENCE OF
A TUNNEL AND A TRAIN INSIDE.

AND LOCAL PUBLIC OPINION

IS ROOTING FOR THE DISCOVERY
OF A NAZI GOLD TRAIN.

FOR LOCAL BUSINESSES, THE STORYIS BRINGING A GOLD RUSH.

HOTELS ARE FULL, AND TOURISTS
ARE FLOCKING TO THE AREA.

EVEN A NEW CAR WASH
IS IN ON THE ACT.

AND FINALLY, THE GOVERNMENT
GRANTS PERMISSION FOR THE DIG.

TREES ARE CLEARED FROM THE AREA,

AND ON AUGUST 16, 2016,
THE DIGGERS MOVE IN.

AFTER A YEAR
OF GROWING ANTICIPATION,

THE EXCAVATION
HAS FINALLY BEGUN.

ANDREAS AND PIOTR HAVE
ASSEMBLED A TEAM OF 64 PEOPLE,

MANY LOCAL VOLUNTEERS,

TO HELP WITH THE WORK.

THEY ARE OPENING UP
SEVERAL TRENCHES

ALONG THE TOP OF THE EMBANKMENT

WHERE THEIR SURVEYS INDICATE
THE TUNNEL IS LOCATED.

NEW SCANS OF THE AREA,
THE TREASURE HUNTERS SAY,

BACK UP THEIR ORIGINAL FINDINGS

AND THEY GIVE
AN UPBEAT PRESS CONFERENCE.

Piotr: WE USED ADDITIONAL
EQUIPMENT FROM UKRAINE,

AND THIS IS WHAT IT SHOWS
IN ONE PLACE.

IT SHOWS THE ROOF OF A TUNNEL.

Narrator: THE NEW SCANS

HAVE INSTILLED CONFIDENCE
IN THE TEAM

THAT THERE WILL
DEFINITELY BE A FIND.

Piotr: WE'LL HAVE THE RESULTS
OF THE TEST SOON,

AND THEN WE'LL BE ABLE
TO SAY SOMETHING MORE.

IF THE TRAIN IS THERE
AND THERE ARE TUNNELS,

THEN WE'LL FIND THEM FOR SURE

BECAUSE THE TRENCHES
ARE SO WIDE AND DEEP.

Narrator:
AS THE WORK ON SITE CONTINUES,

MANY BELIEVE THAT SOON THE NAZIGOLD TRAIN WILL BE REVEALED.

THIS BELIEF IS STOKED
BY A LOCAL LEGEND

THAT TELLS OF A TRAIN
FILLED WITH GOLD

LEAVING THE REGIONAL
CAPITAL, WROCLAW,

AND DISAPPEARING INTO THIN AIR

IN THE LAST STAGES
OF WORLD WAR II.

THE REGIONAL CAPITAL, WROCLAW,

LIES SOME 40 MILES
NORTHEAST OF WALBRZYCH.

TODAY IT IS POLISH,

BUT BEFORE THE WAR
IT WAS CALLED BRESLAU,

ONE OF GERMANY'S MOST BEAUTIFULAND PROSPEROUS CITIES.

BUT IN 1945,BRESLAU FACED NEAR ANNIHILATION

IN ONE OF THE MOST BLOODY
AND DRAMATIC SIEGES

OF THE ENTIRE WAR.

IN BUNKERS BELOW THE PAVEMENTS,

TO THIS DAY
LIE GHOSTLY REMINDERS

OF THE 80 DAYS OF SAVAGE
AND HORRIFIC ORDEAL

THE CITY ENDURED.

TENS OF THOUSANDS
WOULD LOSE THEIR LIVES.

THE QUESTION IS, COULD A TRAIN
LADEN WITH NAZI GOLD

HAVE SLIPPED OUT OF BRESLAU

BEFORE THE CITY
FACED ITS ARMAGEDDON?

AFTER A YEAR OF ANTICIPATION,THE EXCAVATION AT K65 HAS BEGUN.

FOR THE LOCALS,
IF THERE IS A GOLD TRAIN,

THERE IS ONLY ONE PLACE
IT COULD HAVE COME FROM.

TOWARD THE END OF WORLD WAR II,

A KEY HUB OF NAZI TREASURE
WAS JUST 40 MILES AWAY

IN THE TOWN OF WROCLAW,

KNOWN TO THE GERMANS
AS BRESLAU.

IN THE 1930sIT WAS A FERVENTLY PRO-NAZI CITY

AND THE SCENE OF VAST RALLIES
SUPPORTING THE FUHRER.

THROUGHOUT THE WAR, BRESLAU
WAS FAR FROM THE BATTLEFRONTS

AND BEYOND THE RANGE
OF ENEMY BOMBERS.

IT WAS A SAFE PLACE
TO STOCKPILE ARTWORKS

AND TREASURE
FROM ALL OVER THE REICH,

ALONG WITH STOLEN NAZI LOOT
PLUNDERED IN THE EAST.

IT WAS ALSO A TRANSIT POINT
FOR JEWELRY AND GOLD

TAKEN FROM JEWS
KILLED IN THE DEATH CAMPS.

BUT BY MID-1944,
THE GERMANS WERE IN RETREAT.

IN THE WEST, D-DAY MARKED
THE BEGINNING OF THE END.

IN THE EAST,

THE SOVIET RED ARMY
WAS ADVANCING FAST.

BY JANUARY 1945, THE ENEMY
WAS AT THE GATES OF BRESLAU.

HITLER ORDERED THE CITY
TO STAND FAST

AND DEFEND ITSELF
TO THE LAST MAN.

AS THE ENDGAME APPROACHED,
THIS WAS THE LAST MOMENT

THE NAZIS COULD MOVE OUT
THEIR TREASURES AND GOLD.

HISTORIAN TOMASZ GLOWINSKI

IS AN EXPERT
ON THE CITY'S WARTIME FATE,

AND HE'S BEEN INVESTIGATINGWHAT HAPPENED TO THAT STOCKPILE

OF BRESLAU TREASURE.

[SPEAKING POLISH]

Tomasz Glowinski:
THE FACT THAT WORKS OF ART,

ARCHIVES, IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS

WERE COLLECTED AND EVACUATED
OUT OF THE CITY

WE KNOW FOR SURE.

WE HAVE WRITTEN
EVIDENCE FOR THIS.

Narrator:
AND RUMORS EVEN CIRCULATED

OF GOLD CONSIGNMENTS
ALSO LEAVING THE CITY,

AMID THE GENERAL PANIC.

Tomasz: CERTAINLY CIVILIANS
SAW CONVOYS LEAVING THE CITY.

MAYBE THAT WAS WHEN
THE LEGEND WAS BORN--

SOMETHING QUIETLY, SECRETLY
BEING EVACUATED AT NIGHT.

SOMEONE SAW A CRATE,
A TARPAULIN-COVERED TRUCK

AND SO THOUGHT THAT SOMETHING
VALUABLE IS LEAVING THE CITY.

Narrator: THE CITY BRACED ITSELF

FOR THE INEVITABLE BRUTALITY
OF THE SOVIET ONSLAUGHT,

RUSHING TO HIDE VALUABLES
AND THROWING UP BARRICADES.

CHAOS DESCENDED.

THOUSANDS TOOK
TO THE ROADS IN FLIGHT.

THE MAIN STATION
WAS CROWDED WITH CIVILIANS

DESPERATELY SEEKING
TO LEAVE THE CITY.

SO COULD A TRAIN
LADEN WITH GOLD

HAVE SLIPPED OUT
OF BRESLAU AT THIS POINT,

AMID THE CHAOS AND PANIC,

AND HEADED SOUTHWEST
TOWARDS WALBRZYCH,

WHERE THE TREASURE HUNTERS
ARE NOW DIGGING?

IT'S A PROSPECT THAT HAS
TANTALIZED LOCALS FOR DECADES,

AND NOW, THE TWO HUNTERS
ARE ON THE BRINK OF AN ANSWER.

BUT BACK AT K65,
THE NEWS IS NOT GOOD.

WHAT ANDREAS AND PIOTR THOUGHT
WAS THE TOP OF THE TUNNEL

TURNS OUT TO BE
A GLACIAL DEPOSIT.

AND DESPITE
FIVE DAYS OF DIGGING,

THEY HAVEN'T FOUND
THE TUNNEL OR TRAIN

THAT THEY SAW IN THEIR SCAN.

TO THEIR DISMAY,

THE HUNTERS THINK IT MUST BEDEEPER THAN THEY'RE ABLE TO DIG.

Piotr:
RIGHT HERE NEXT TO THIS HOLE

IS THE SITE WHERE
WE GOT THE BEST PICTURE

FROM
THE GROUND-PENETRATING RADAR.

BUT WE HAVEN'T
BEEN ABLE TO GET DOWN THERE

BECAUSE OF THE ROCK.

HERE WE'RE TOO HIGH UP.

WE NEED TO GO AT LEAST
10 TO 12 YARDS LOWER.

BUT WE CAN'T
BREAK THROUGH THE ROCK.

WE NEED TO USE A DRILLING RIG.

Narrator: ANDREAS AND PIOTR SAY

THAT TO GET THROUGH
A LAYER OF ROCK

THAT'S BLOCKING
THEIR WAY TO THE TUNNEL,

THEY WOULD NEED
HEAVY DRILLING EQUIPMENT.

BUT TO BRING IT ON SITE

WOULD REQUIRE PERMISSION
THEY DON'T HAVE.

FOR NOW, THEY'VE SIMPLY
RUN OUT OF TIME AND MONEY.

BUT IN A TWIST
THAT'S ALL TOO FAMILIAR

IN THE QUEST FOR NAZI TREASURE,

A NEW THEORY HAS EMERGED.

LOCAL FILMMAKER WOJTEK
BELIEVES ANDREAS AND PIOTR

ARE SIMPLY DIGGING
IN THE WRONG PLACE.

FAR BETTER, HE SAYS,
TO BEGIN EXCAVATIONS

BY THE STRANGE
CONCRETE STRUCTURES

400 YARDS ALONG THE EMBANKMENT.

Wojtek: I ALWAYS SUSPECTED THEREARE MORE INTERESTING THINGS

ON THIS SIDE OF THE VIADUCT.

IN MY OPINION, THE DIG
SHOULD HAVE STARTED HERE.

AND THESE SHAFTS
ARE THE EVIDENCE

THAT THERE MUST HAVE BEENSOMETHING UNDER THE GROUND HERE.

BUT I DON'T THINK
THE STORY IS OVER YET.

MOST LIKELY,
THE STORY WILL NEVER END.

Narrator: AT K65, WORK STARTS
ON FILLING IN THE HUGE HOLES.

MUCH OF THE EVIDENCE
FOR A HIDDEN NAZI GOLD TRAIN

HAS CERTAINLY BEEN
COMPELLING AND TANTALIZING:

THE INCREDIBLE HISTORY OF
THIS REGION OF LOWER SILESIA;

THE RIESE TUNNELS

AND THE SECRET
NAZI SUPER PROJECT

THEY WERE INTENDED TO HOUSE;

A FAIRY TALE CASTLE,

REDESIGNED AS A NEW HEADQUARTERSFOR HITLER HIMSELF;

LOOTED NAZI GOLDSPIRITED OUT OF A BESIEGED CITY

IN THE LAST DAYS OF THE WAR.

AND THAT'S WHY
SO MANY PEOPLE HERE

ARE SURE NAZI TREASURE EXISTS.

ANDREAS AND PIOTR
HAVE LOST A SMALL FORTUNE

HUNTING FOR THE GHOST TRAIN,

BUT DESPITE EVERYTHING,

THEY REMAIN CONVINCED
IT'S SOMEWHERE OUT THERE.

Andreas: WELL, IT'S DEFINITELY
NOT THE END OF THE WORLD

IF THE TRAIN IS NOT HERE.

IT'LL BE SOMEWHERE.

WE'LL THINK ABOUT
HOW TO DO THIS BETTER,

AND WE'LL DO ANOTHER DIG.

Narrator: AND ALREADY, ANOTHER
NEW LOCAL MYTH IS EMERGING.

A WITNESS HAS COME FORWARD
CLAIMING THAT, FOR SURE,

THE MYSTERY CAN BE SOLVED
AT THE K61 MARKER.
