BUENOS AIRES, March 23 (UPI) — Researchers in Argentina have discovered what they believe to be a hideout meant for Nazis in case of a defeat during World War II.
The researchers, from the University of Buenos Aires, found Nazi coins and swastikas carved into walls at the location. The hideout is deep in the jungle near the town of San Ignacio, and it was overgrown with plant life.
Though it is known some prominent Nazi leaders did flee to Argentina when the Nazis were defeated in World War II, it is believed none of them used the predetermined hideouts. Instead, the researchers say there was no reason to use the hideouts, as they could freely live in towns without persecution.
