Auschwitz Museum Discovers Double Bottom Cup With A Ring Hidden Inside
- 8 years ago
A cup in the collection of the Auschwitz Museum was recently discovered to have a double bottom, and concealed inside the hidden compartment were a gold ring and a necklace.
The Auschwitz Museum has gathered over 12,000 pieces of the enameled kitchenware stolen from those sent to Auschwitz-Birkenau, but one recently revealed itself to be more than what it seemed.
A cup in the collection turned out to have a double bottom, and concealed inside the hidden compartment were a gold ring and a necklace.
An analysis of jewelry suggests it was made in Poland between 1921 and 1931.
