What Else Did the Nazi's Hide in Lake Toplitz? (Episode #22)
Manage episode 400545661 series 3512829
In towns along the Totes Gebirge Mountain range, there were reports of a convoy of trucks guarded by SS troops traveling to a lake called Lake Toplitz in early 1945. However, no official records of what the SS troops were doing at the lake or what was in the convoy was ever found. Then, in 1959 investigators recovered £700 million of counterfeit notes that Hitler had planned on using to sabotage Britain's economy from the lake. While multiple expeditions to the lake have found evidence of other Nazi activity, nothing has been officially extracted due to the dangerous depths of the lake. What about those multiple murder victims found around the lake who had connections to the Nazi testing station located at Lake Toplitz? Also, the tunnels found along the lake shores? So what else did the Nazi’s hide in Lake Toplitz?
