The Grünes Gewölbe and the Residenzschloss was robbed

Post by SwordfishMining »

https://abcnews.go.com/International/hi ... d=67287289 It is not yet clear exactly what was stolen, but the thieves have taken part or all of three jewelry sets dating from the 18th century, which could amount to up to 100 pieces of jewelry, jeweled buttons and cuff links. The Dresden authorities would not put a price on the jewels but said that the historic and cultural value was just as valuable -- or even more important -- than the monetary value.

"There is nowhere in any other collection in Europe jewels or jewels set that have been preserved in this form and quality and quantity as these royal sets," said Dirk Syndram, the director of the Green Vault at the Dresden State Art Collections at the press conference.

Wow, what a haul, and from a vault yet! They're brazen thieves, for sure, so will they be caught, or will the Dresden just have to kiss the jewels goodbye? :?: We can only hope they're recovered.
