Nearly all of the jewels from Dresden’s dramatic Green Vault heist in 2019 will once again be on display in their original location.
Nearly five years after millions of euros’ worth of jewelry was stolen in a museum heist in eastern Germany, visitors can once again admire nearly all of the precious pieces in person. In November 2019, thieves stole pieces that contained more than 4,300 diamonds with an estimated value of over 113 million euros , from the Gruenes Gewoelbe museum in Dresden, in the eastern German state of Saxony.
“There are certain things that perhaps absolute experts can see; we with the naked eye can actually barely see the damage,” said Marion Ackermann, Dresden State Museums director general. “And this damage is mainly due to the fact that they were either broken out during the crime… or improperly stored by the perpetrators after the crime,” Ackermann added. Five men, all members of the same family, were sentenced to several years behind bars in May 2023 for their involvement.
