Treasure of old Deutsche Marks found under charred remains of church

During reconstruction work of the burned Ost-West-Friedenskirche in Munich's Olympic Park, a treasure of old Deutsche Mark banknotes and coins was uncovered, packed in tin cans beneath the ruins. The origin of the money remains a mystery, but it is suspected to be tips or monetary gifts collected over the years. A portion of the recovered money will be used for the reconstruction of the burned church, which aims to create an East-West meeting place. The discovery of the hidden treasure has provided both financial support and renewed interest in the project.
