Jonas Valley

Jonas Valley

Jonastal, situated in the Ilm-Kreis district in Germany between Crawinkel and Arnstadt, was a scene of the horrors of the national socialism in the last years of the Second World War. Ten thousands of prisoners of the concentration camp Buchenwald were forced to dig 25 tunnels into the mountain. The whole operation was performed under strictest secrecy.

The exact aim of the operation is still a mystery. There are many theories, including headquarters for the führer and a center for atomic research. Many believe that this is a site for testing atomic bombs or a production site for the "Amerika" rocket. It has even been searched for the legendary amber room. The amber room was build in first built in Catherine Palace in Tsarskoye Selo. It was a spectacular beautiful room sometimes called the "Eighth Wonder of the world." The German Nazis stole all the valuables in the Amber room and took them to Königsberg where Jonas Valley (Jonastal) is. No one knows for sure what the answer to this mystery is.
