The resting place of the Amber Room treasures was reportedly made at the weekend near the German village of Deutschneudorf. Tests showed a man-made cavern 20 metres below ground that contained a large amount of precious metals.

The "Amber Room" was an 18th century chamber inside the Catherine Palace in Leningrad, now St Petersburg, which was made out of amber panels backed by gold leaf.

It was looted in 1941 during the Nazi invasion and taken to Königsburg, now Kaliningrad, where it was lost in 1945 following Allied bombing.

Heinz-Peter Haustein, who is digging at the site near Deutschneudorf, said the cavern had not yet been reached but tests showed what was inside was "definitely" precious metals.
