Secret 'Nazi Hideout' Discovered In Argentina By The Archaeologists

Archaeologists in Argentina have reportedly discovered a site believed to be a secret hideout built by the Nazis to disappear safely in case Germany loses World War II. A collection of ruins has been identified deep in a remote jungle of Argentina.

According to Clarin newspaper, the archaeologists from the University of Buenos Aires have found five German coins stamped between 1938 and 1941 and a porcelain plate with “Made in Germany” label from the remains of three destroyed buildings in the Teyu Cuare provincial park in northern Argentina, near the Paraguay border.

“Apparently, halfway through World War II, the Nazis had a secret project of building shelters for top leaders in the event of defeat—inaccessible sites, in the middle of deserts, in the mountains, on a cliff or in the middle of the jungle like this,” said the lead archaeologist Daniel Schavelzon, reported Clarin.

Schavelzon and his team spent two weeks excavating and exploring the ruins and claims that the hideout was a part of the plan to protect the top Nazi leaders at a place which is not easily accessible, but has easy routes for escaping in case an emergency arise. "In five minutes you can get to another country. You cross the river and you're in Paraguay. It's a strategic, very well thought-out site," explained Schavelzon.

The theory of Nazi hideout is still unclear since the then president of Argentina, Juan Peron, himself, allowed thousands of Nazis and other Europeans to settle in South America after the war ended. Schavelzon has reportedly said that he will need more funding to continue to look through the ruins and discover more about the hideout.
