The researchers are expected to enter the bunker in the coming days. It is unclear who will claim ownership of the vast treasure if it is discovered, with many experts putting the value of the room at at least £150m.

Am I sensing another Jerry Rivers moment? LOL

Peter the Great was the Tsar of Russia. The Amber Room was given as a gift by Friedrich Wilhelm, the King of Prussia.

Journalists.

If it once belonged to the King of Prussia, would that not make it the German Amber Room?

Better hope it has not filled with water in 65 or so years.

“my computer’s anti-virus software didn’t like the page that opened after clicking the link.”

I think that’s a fake “you have viruses page.” Designed to get you to buy their anti-virus.

I had the same thing happen. DO NOT CLICK THIS LINK

I keep hearing stories of assorted newly discovered caves, mineshafts and bunkers as being the location of the amber room but nothing ever comes of the stories. Never even anything interesting mentioned after opening the locations.
