in 60 minutes on d, w, the postwar should become an icon of the federal republic. the good gemini, so to speak. then the if it was really the, i'm the really mean those crates. he's not known for sudden the, from probably someone who has already given us a to delete one of the cruise is the right one to follow. but which is the, the,
8:31 am
they have something in common. they're both great cultural treasures with mysterious past involving global politics. we tell the true story of the long last amber room and explain the dispute between cairo and berlin, over the legendary bust of never teaching arts on sale on the trail of artworks shrouded in legend and f a t t almost 50 centimeters tools, some 3400 years old with an estimated value of 400000000 euros. the bosses on display input in, is it an invested us the egypt i own with lots about this? i'm busted better because then invest that entails at the fuel method exchange. so we send the 50 to, but have we, this is towards them from the ground all 3 of the girls or they think for, i'll do that. i don't think we have if you send an investment that one way is a hostage and pass it a hostage to does, and that's
8:32 am
a t t actually belong to the best of method tc combines feminine chum and power. the egyptian queen, with possibly the most famous profile in the world, is a global icon, a role model in the symbol absolute beauty system, iron. these are the ups or what we have this absolute symmetry. hyatt, the slenderness of the face, the long neck. this incredibly well proportions, mouth system morning. and then of course there's the in lead. i make an eye that really looks at our as a special radiance. how can i get this onto the after being buried in the sands of egypt to thousands of years, never changing, has been in germany for the past century. the queen holds close at the noise museum, died in captivating hundreds of thousands of visitors each year. i lived in berlin
8:33 am
for 2 years and i find it very difficult. it's not her place. it's just extra shame . berlin has been making lots of money. i've never seen the. ready lot at the boston egypt in the 1st place, the to understand this, we need to go back to 1912. when egypt has not yet to suffer in states and not to purchase control. archaeologists from france, england and germany was scouring the land and search refreshes to the museums this fight, it was common practice back then, just as the chips in state didn't have the means of the resources. i was prepared to allow the excavation campaigns on the condition that half of the objects would ultimately remain in egypt by
8:34 am
one such a contract was secured by jim and entrepreneur, jane seemed a we'll see, patron of building museums. he used his fortune to finance excavations by german audiologist lewd fick boycott on december 6th, 1912 the t mega sensational discovery, a tell l. amana on the nile. the full part was of a joy. when it came time to the antiquities department, to design the funds, the boss went to germany and does compensation a wink ultra piece remained an agent movie advise after months that has
8:35 am
been speculation that the boss may have been sprinkled with this was done so that the color and beauty would not immediately apparent. so it could hardly be said that everything was done in the right way. so gun is goodman comb about so could you to kept mister t t in the country? egypt, or under layer of colonialism. the ultimate colonialism, the british colonialism and the french, they took control of the intake, what the service, so there was no addictions in control of them to put the service that the because that's it is how many of those of the time were created under the conditions of empire, these of those no country would accept today giving away hoff of the objects with some things egypt, a body shop just a few years later. so if and if a t t had been found a few years later, she would be in cairo today. in other words,
8:36 am
the rules themselves and the legs that you timothy, need to be questioned, make it to me, teeth and egyptian art colon, who left the country. not her name means the beautiful one has come. she came to rome and shaken the for on a game plan together with her husband. i'm un hotel, the fools who like to became i cannot and you send to the throne. in 1353, b, c. and in both his wife of just 15 in the business of ruling like no came before him together and against the will of the priests, the couple of polished almost all day if he's paying homage only to ask for the sun . god, i think it will say the root of conduct and f a t t is considered one of the great cultural revolutions the abolition of many gods to focus on a single day or 2 and a relatively abstract day. it's yeah, that's the,
8:37 am
that's least it's like really use the only creational force that exams. that's not until it was clear that all other gods with the side light in this new constellation of this new theology. it plays an extremely important role in that to me. so why was she a feminist pioneer of the sea as an icon? not just for the ancient egyptian women but also for mother and women and each to because women in the process all fight thing for women equality. i actually look up at such women from history in 1917 to boston, left at the time of egypt for the name, a leading metropolis of the modern age to it remained on the looking key for more than 10 years in the private possession of entrepreneur james seemed one then on the 1st of april, 1924. the past was presented to the public for the 1st time and caused
8:38 am
a sensation. fatigue enchanted the masters with a simple elegance that was in keeping with the spirits of the mode naij cheap and shed the look of 19 twenties, feeling, stones like my lane, a decrease and critic off of the notes. and then if it was 1st exhibited in the spring of 1924 and the 1st edition to mullens for have a ton with made in the fall. or if he's been doing away, we can speak of a century of the moans for the return of the buses. we've got the photo spiking off to egypt became of silver and strange. they offered an exchange. the light side statue of the high priest run a fit for the legendary post of nasa t t jane seymour and gave the green light a deep sleep archaeologist. an egyptologist consulted in blythewood or of the same opinion that this is why we should go ahead because he's been from an opt historical and egypt logical point of view. the past was not as valuable as they
8:39 am
thoughts. a new critics walk would be a waiting, waiting situation, but the public saw things differently and looked to the museum that was a string of all schools and the press against the decision, which was then with us. in the end, the opinion of the experts counted less than that of the general public. you guys, that's impressive. this will click on the 1933, the national socialist seized power in germany and the bus to become a political point in the show of strength between nations. propaganda minister use a double saw an opportunity to capitalize on. it's written, the largest german no far t is good, both in particular. so the return of nif at t t has a useful strategy to win egypt over to the side in the past. so against britain, it was hipaa who stopped the hand of
8:40 am
the kid. even wanted to have the museum built in hit on. but how could any gyptian woman be an icon from nazi germany? the in this, during the nazi period there was a series of appropriations of f, a t t as a kind of area. and which of course does not seem immediately intuitive, but she was a woman who propagated a son called him, which was also integral for the nazis you to the. the past remain didn't germany, even though now even jane seymour and was arguing for its risk ton when he donates the start to of an effort to, to, to the validity of them said that i gave you enough for 50 on the condition that if
8:41 am
it junctions would the request the bus, but it must be to fit your to but do, simon was jewish. and of course, a part of the nice thing that fits them in germany. his wishes, word of mouth, respected by the museum, ordered by the service by the 2nd world war devastation building and our treasures you were going to buy. the auto body will disclose to the filament and panic when i talk to you. and if it's interesting the nazis brought the precious spots to safety in an underground salt mine. the treasure tripe was filled with gold balls and thousands of works of us, including paintings by rembrandt, deirdre, and fall to charley. shortly before the end of the war, american soldiers discovered the boston the mind and moved it to the central collecting point in response to the following year. and if the gc was back in the spotlight as the district now they don't get back up, they didn't put any email data or they got it. i think i saw them
8:42 am
definitely enough. in the postwar period, she became an icon of the early federal republic. the good gemini, so to speak. when you see the pictures, it almost seems like a longing for a septic affection of the old, the doc he is. it's a kind of therapy you'd say viewing of it. so that's how these pictures seem to some unsound. so come, i'm disappeared and gave the method tc eventually would turn to the need since 2009. she's had her own room and the noise museum, the need and is the undisputed stop the chip sion collection. she's a big ahead of the c team, a long seen as part of jimmy's cultural identity. she's also the cool, the very successful marketing strategy. the new for
8:43 am
tc has been part of the gym and cultural heritage. for the past 100 years, they've been official demands for the return of the artifact from egypt. but the pressure on cultural heritage foundation says there is no reason to change the 19 searching division of funds. i don't use data, so you look through this on this one. our stance is of course, that we 1st of all adhere to the legal situation laga and it provides a clear basis to provide the best us here on plaza. i want to push to here is a foundation based on regulations from the colonial era over a 100 years ago. the older generations are still holding on this imperial lift 5. this is of our last start, but i think they also termination look at the different they have
8:44 am
a different ethical code then they think museums need to catch up to the 21st century. it's just a matter of when and who into enough coverage to correct the mistakes of the past. 2 dogs and if a t t belong to germany or egypt at the end of the day, what's legal? and was not always the same thing. this is the story, if one of your greatest operations, the legendary and the room, an entire room coughed from and by the gold of the baltic spectacular, priceless and missing without price for more than 80 years. the of the room and its face is one of the greatest mysteries of the 20th century. for more than 200 years
8:45 am
time was here. it's catherine's palace, the gates of some petersburg plates in leningrad. in 1959, germany in faded, poland triggering world war 2. in 1941 german troops advanced east towards lemongrass. they murdered and planted, and cynthia and the room on its last great journey fortune. see, cuz the still searching for the tricia to the state, the in 1716 prussian team william frederick the 1st gave the and the room to russian. saw teach at the great in exchange for some rather impressive soul is the wonder of the world a chain. but unlike any seen before, covered with andrew and gold that glowed like the sun, its value today is estimated to 200000000 euros. for 225 years. the emperor room
8:46 am
was at the catherine palace and pushed in a suburb of what's now again called saint petersburg. until 1941. when the nazis advanced into the soviet union and in most and this will, of extermination. soviet troops was unable to save the legendary treasure from the gym and army. of course, the germans found it very quickly and did what they called securing, which was nothing of the routing. it's called the armies up test had various clients in the nazi stage at old low going to put his finger of museum in limits and his deputy, him and good and also collected ox for various organizations of the nazi stage when to on a losing spray in german occupied tote trees such as the soviet union stuff . what happens when c m, the reason is not so unique of the whole not unusual. that's part of
8:47 am
a large scale. let's say polluting program carried out by the germans in the soviet union and did all the territories they tried in your um, that's going to be an old cottage on the very much soldiers, dismantled the ample room in 1941, packed it up in crates and scented westwood to clinics, but now cold killing and grabbed the clinics back next. what's a good destination for you to follow up jiggs from eastern europe because it was basically not within range of the ally. busy of the it would be some pressure, it was generally considered a safe region must pause and guys going to that some of the sort of your in the winter of 1941. the and the room was project displayed in tunics, the console, but not for long. the city came under attack from british forces and the castles summit extensive damage. the red army was advancing to
8:48 am
end on june 6th 1944 us troops landed in normandy as of june. 5th, 19 thoughtful was the year when the boat was fine and the last for the juvenile parish, the treasures and the museums was stored and muffled everywhere, and some were taken and tunnels. bunkers and it says to protect them away from possible destruction. and i'm the for because you have to do this happen in clinics, book in march 1944, there was some indications that the ample room was again dismantled and packed into crates. but then was, isn't since that moment in march 1944. we've heard numerous witness statements from people who say they saw these crane the weather. it was actually didn't come. the room in those plates is no, no, i'm for a certain percentage dispatched and some of our then this, this isn't good on the. so the trail of the oxide just soon gets lost in the chaos
8:49 am
of the chaos that was sent. as tens of thousands of germans fled east of prussia from the advancing rate on me . the landry west woods was blocked, so hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians would you be evacuated to by see one of the vessels used because the evacuation was perform. a cruise ship, the little helm cloth for several views during the nazi regime. is it provided recreation and amusement for german vacation is on january the 30th 1945 at 1 10 pm. the ship set sail with thousands of refugees on board. it became one of the largest ship dishonest as in history. when soviets submarines torpedoed and sank until home go slow. all the 9000 lives were lost was the ample room also one vote to close close or had it been packed up earlier and sent to the gym and rush to be
8:50 am
here. and there was a whole series of mining tunnels, in the german advice in which large numbers of treasures were stored. and the great number of treasures were full of 10, some of which were then also found the fight. i lied to goes on st. took the famous monuments, men, for example, loans and other things. at the end. the monuments man says seasons the is a couple of money. so you can the the monuments and what are experts recruited by the united states to find artworks looked at by the nazis the
8:51 am
the other side 1000000 pieces as to the allies went searching and found incredible quantities of loose. it's about the nazis. but the and the room was not among them, not in any tunnel motion, any cell types of the fact that the m, the written was not found in these mine target store in the known ones is in mind for you. this one, this kind indication that it never left mine a co next but in east are fresh from much us, paused and most good company. so was the and the room really stealing to next book at the end of the wall?
8:52 am
in april 1945, the city was in flames. did the and the treasure done in the process last forever? that's one of many possibilities in this intriguing case. a mystery of the 20th century. what is the of the room perhaps lying at the bottom of the baltic sea? is it in the critic tombs of clinics, the council? why has no one has found the ample room from his head? it is probable that someone has already given us the decisive true there is property already a good lead that might be true among all the crews we hear about which one that's the big crucial question to fund. so we're research this man, mice of nuns, eric kaufman, the feed gal along towards the nazis in east prussia. he probably gave the old or what was to happen with the and the room. he liked to use that knowledge to safe,
8:53 am
as long as she likes to his very life depended on his trying to keep the authorities interested in the end, the room and his knowledge of it. because cole, who was initially able to go into hiding and was discovered in 1949, quote, transferred to power and fried and sentenced to death. he then basically spent the rest of his life repeatedly providing clues, repeatedly, trying to like trials in order to make himself important. and in order to save himself so that both he took that knowledge to the great religion to the empire room has become launch is in life trisha. hunters and scientists have searched the and the room for decades throughout europe and the federal republic of germany. and in communist east germany, private individuals, government agencies, and above all secret services such as the east gym and state security. the stars even exist suspension and some of the history of the m. the room is also the
8:54 am
history of the cold war that we see it was of interest only to the soviet officials and also some family pressure. hunters or adventures will consist mirror c, c, a risk, but also to the extreme installed. so you can stop today and carried out major investigations combined with those ca, either and assigned officers who were interested in the following 4 possible leads in order to find c. m, the room on the stuff in. but the result was always the same. the ample room remained lost, its secret unrevealed, but a feature film. imagine something different and not the on lunch. i mentioned this video inside the
8:55 am
put back in the real world with this being an almost conciliatory ending. since 2003, the catherine palace has had a new and the room off the use of reconstruction financed and taught by germany. the chamber is once again in the place, it was stolen from the movie to some of the legend divorced. and the strikes from what i can show people that present, namely looted out and little full misappropriation of the vin, massive crime that has been pushed into the background of products into one piece. the legend and mistreat of the and the room lead. so a tricia vision, bodies attaching period. thank you. repeat and history.
