Jewels stolen in Germany's Green Vault heist back on display
Nearly five years after millions of euros' worth of jewelry was stolen in a museum heist in eastern Germany, visitors could once again admire nearly all of the precious pieces in person this Tuesday (August 13).
In November 2019, thieves stole pieces that contained more than 4,300 diamonds with an estimated value of over 113 million euros ($124 million), from the Gruenes Gewoelbe (Green Vault) museum in Dresden, in the eastern German state of Saxony.
Police have said most of the jewels stolen from the museum, which houses one of Europe's greatest art collections, have been recovered. Five men, all members of the same family, were sentenced to several years behind bars in May 2023 for their involvement.
