Argentina's top court finds boxes of Nazi items in basement DW 05/12/2025
Briefly

Argentina's Supreme Court has uncovered 83 boxes of Nazi materials in its basement archives, filled with propaganda, photographs, and documents reflecting Hitler's ideology. Discovered while preparing for a museum, these items were sent by the German embassy in Japan to Argentina during WWII. Originally claimed as 'personal effects,' they were confiscated by customs to maintain Argentina's neutrality. The court has invited the Holocaust Museum to help document and analyze the materials, aiming to illuminate lesser-known aspects of the Holocaust and its financing networks.
"Upon opening one of the boxes, we identified material intended to consolidate and propagate Adolf Hitler's ideology in Argentina during the Second World War."
"Experts will also examine them for any clues that can shed light on still-unknown aspects of the Holocaust, such as international financing networks used by the Nazis."
