Splendour: It was put into the Catherine Palace, near St Petersburg, where it remained until the Nazis looted the grand residence in 1941, dismantling the room and taking it back to one of their castles

Disappeared: But the room was never seen again after 1945, and some suspect it was whisked away by the Nazis as the Red Army marched on East Prussia (pictured: the replica Amber Room)

The Amber Room was originally just a cabinet, given as a gift to Peter the Great

Found?: Journalist Tom Bower believes the room could be on board a train found hidden in a tunnel (like this one) near the city of Walbrzych, in Poland

Journey: It would have had to have travelled the whole way across Poland to reach the town

The room, crafted out of amber, gold and precious jewels, was stolen from a Russian palace just outside St Petersburg in 1941, and taken to a Nazi-held castle in what was then East Prussia. But the grand room (top) was never seen again after the city, now Kaliningrad, was marched on by the Red Army in 1945. Yet some have claimed the Nazis secreted it away on the railway - which has led author Tom Bower to hope it might be concealed on the mysterious 'gold train', hidden in a tunnel like this one (bottom) in southern Poland.
