HOPES have been reignited in the search for the mysterious Nazi gold train, which is said to be filled with treasures from the Amber Room and reportedly disappeared during the last days of World War II.

A detailed letter has been sent to Polish authorities claiming to finally reveal the alleged train’s long-lost location.

A man, who asked to remain anonymous, sent a detailed letter dated April 23 to Polish authorities.

The tipper claims they have uncovered train wagons hidden in a tunnel near Wałbrzych, in southwestern Poland.

The letter wrote: “Three railway wagons from the period of World War II, are hidden in a camouflaged tunnel.

“Each wagon is approximately 12 metres long, four metres wide and four metres high.

“The wagons are hidden behind a closed, sliding steel gate at the entrance to the tunnel.”

It added: “The wagons contain valuable precious metals, including gold.

“Precise geodetic data will be made available to the mayor of Wałbrzych or his deputy in the form of attachments.”

City representative Kamila Świerczyńska mentioned: “An individual, whose identity cannot be revealed, submitted an official report regarding the discovery known in the media as the gold train.”

“The letter looks factual and specific. The letter indicates four attachments, such as a tunnel with a train inside.”

She also noted that the letter came with a “document featuring geodetic information, terrain profiles, mapping of the tunnel structure, a simulation of the track, and testimony from a witness who resided in Wałbrzych during the war.”

Mystery of Nazi shipwreck that may hold £100million of Hitler’s GOLD & the legendary ‘Amber Room’ treasure

Anna Nowakowska, head of the Wałbrzych branch of the Provincial Office for the Protection of Monuments, said: “After analysing various sources and documents, the man came to the conclusion that he had located a tunnel with the so-called golden train inside.”

The legend dates back to the final months of WWII, when an armoured Nazi train is believed to have departed from the city of Wroclaw – then Breslau and part of Germany – loaded with looted treasures.

But the train never reached its reported destination of Wałbrzych.

It was rumoured to have vanished into a secret underground tunnels built by the Nazis in the Owl Mountains region.

This fresh tip, filled with technical data, maps and even a witness statement, has reignited hope.

Local authorities say the anonymous man behind the claim has not yet applied for a permit to conduct an official search.

Officials are currently considering whether to launch an investigation.

It comes as the alleged train was brought back into the spotlight in 2015 after two amateur treasure hunters, Piotr Koper and Andreas Richter, claimed they had found it using ground-penetrating radar.

Nothing came of these investigations.

Meanwhile, in 2023, the Jaćwież Historical and Exploratory Association discovered a hidden railway and a pair of train wheels near the Mamerki bunker in northwestern Poland.

The tracks were discovered five feet below the surface in the Warmia and Mazury province, which was the headquarters of Hitler’s German Army Supreme Command, just a few miles from Hitler’s Wolf’s Lair bunker complex.

The discovery of the hidden railway near the Mamerki bunker complex in Poland could be loosely connected to the famous gold train legend.

The legend of the Nazi gold train

THERE is an enduring urban legend that hidden deep beneath the mountains of southwest Poland lies a Nazi gold train – also known as the Wałbrzych gold train.

According to the legend, the train was loaded with precious jewels, gold and amber from the Amber Room of the Czars.

The Amber Room, built for Russian Tsar Peter the Great in the 1700s, was looted by the Nazis during the invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941.

It is considered the crown jewel of the missing Nazi treasure haul, dubbed the “Eighth Wonder of the World” after it was stolen from Catherine Palace near St Petersburg.

The Nazi gold train is believed to have vanished into a sealed rail tunnel or mine somewhere in the Central Sudetes.

Since 1945, numerous searches – including operations by the Polish Army during the Cold War – have failed to uncover any trace of the train.

Interest in the legend surged again between 2015 and 2018, when two Polish treasure hunters claimed they had discovered the train using ground-penetrating radar.

This claim led to a high-profile excavation effort involving the Polish military, government officials and private backers.

But the dig was eventually abandoned after the so-called anomaly turned out to be a natural geological formation.

The legend lives on – a group of enthusiasts has even built a full-scale replica of a Nazi armoured train, hoping to turn it into a tourist attraction.
