There have been a lot of stories about finding hidden treasure over the years.
Before they were forced to leave the country, this man went back to look for the family property that his father had hidden.
He learned from his father how to find hidden objects, but it wasn’t easy.
In point of fact, he was unsure even if the material had a lifespan of seventy years.
Thankfully, the items were located, and they were in excellent condition.
Schlattner returned to his childhood home and searched the attic for a small cord attached to one of the wooden panels. When the shelves opened, a plethora of possessions from decades earlier were revealed. Schlattner had worried over the years that the house’s numerous roof repairs would have destroyed them. Seventy packages were hidden in the attic by Schlattner’s father. To uncover the property, a small hammer was used to tap the panel boards.
Some of the packages had been opened, while others were wrapped in brown paper. Items such as newspapers, hat hangers, paintings, skis, and more newspapers were also found. The packages also contained paperweights, pencils, umbrellas, school desks, unopened cigarettes, badges, books, socks, and sewing supplies. Everything was rated as functional. The treasures are now housed in a museum in the Czech city of Usti nad Labem due to their high historical value. Okura added, “The packages were very cleverly concealed in the skylight vault.”
“The amount of stuff that could fit in such a small space was unbelievable. To remove everything, it took more than an hour.”
The treasures were examined by the museum director, who stated that it is extremely rare to find such hidden “German property” in the area.
Schlattner, regrettably, acknowledged his inability to keep them and agreed to assist in locating the rightful owners.
Schlattner reflected, “We thought we’d come back one day and find the property there.”
