A research group discovered the remains of five individuals, including a newborn, during excavation operations at Hermann Göring's residence in the grounds of Adolf Hitler's former headquarters in Poland. According to Der Spiegel magazine, this discovery was made by a team of German and Polish archaeologists at the "Wolf's Lair," Hitler's main headquarters and the command complex of the German Nazi army, located in the Warmian-Masurian province in northern Poland, which also housed the Nazi aviation minister Göring.
During the excavation, dismembered human remains were found. The magazine reported that skeletal remains of five individuals—three adults, a teenager, and an infant—were discovered beneath the old wooden floor in Göring's house, all missing arms and legs. One member of the group suggested that the bodies might have been buried after the house was built, as workers would have discovered the remains if this had occurred prior to construction. However, there is a possibility that the bodies were buried after the end of World War II. The Polish prosecutor’s office has initiated an investigation.
The "Wolf's Lair" is a complex consisting of over eighty bunkers and fortified buildings in the forest, situated in a protected area of 250 hectares, surrounded by barbed wire, minefields, watchtowers, and machine guns with anti-aircraft defenses.
