Karlsruhe.

This is coolbert:

Once again devoted readers to the blog the topic the long-lost Amber Room, missing treasure from the era of the Second World War the game is afoot, divers are ready, treasure will be [??] found.

Thanks to the English tabloid the Daily Mail and the tip from Freeper.

"Hunt for lost artwork from legendary Amber Room is set to begin as divers prepare to search sunken Nazi warship: Photos show vessel was carrying unidentified artwork and possible museum artefacts"

"Divers hunting for lost artwork from the legendary Amber Room looted by the Nazis are to begin searching a WWII shipwreck at the bottom of the Baltic Sea after photos revealed unidentified paintings and possible artefacts."

"The 12-man team from the Baltictech diving group will spend 10 days off the coast of Gdansk, Poland, at the end of May at the site where the German steamer Karlsruhe was sank by a Royal Navy submarine in 1945."

That "German steamer Karlsruhe" participating in Operation Hannibal and sunk by a British submarine. British submarines operating in the Baltic at the very end of WW2? 

MIGHT THERE NOT BE IN THE ARCHIVES SOME ULTRA DECRYPTS OF HANNIBAL AND CARGO AS STOWED ON THE VARIOUS "GERMAN STEAMERS"?

See previous blog entries [with some further embedded links] the topic the Amber Room:

Cannot find on the Internet a single instance of Royal Navy submarines active in the Baltic during WW2. WW1 YES but not WW2.
