During World War II, the Nazis carried out the largest art theft in history, looting hundreds of thousands of masterpieces from museums, churches, and private collections across Europe. As the war came to an end, a remarkable group of museum curators, historians, and soldiers known as the Monuments Men embarked on an extraordinary mission to recover these stolen treasures before they were lost forever.
This documentary follows the dramatic hunt for Nazi-looted masterpieces, from hidden salt mines and mountain castles to Hitler's planned Führer Museum. Featuring legendary works by Leonardo da Vinci, Vermeer, Rembrandt, Michelangelo, Van Gogh, and the Ghent Altarpiece, it tells the incredible true story of one of history's greatest rescue missions.
