The Green Vault in Dresden, which was stolen almost two years ago, has received a historic piece of jewelery as a permanent loan.

With the support of the Ernst von Siemens Art Foundation, it was possible to regain "an important treasure" that once belonged to the treasury of August the Strong, as the State Art Collections (SKD) announced on Wednesday.

Dresden - The new addition is to be presented next Monday.

It is not related to the spectacular theft of jewels, said a spokesman.

Two men broke into the famous museum on November 25, 2019, punched holes in a display case with an ax and tore out pieces of jewelry from the 17th and 18th centuries that were attached to it.

There is no trace of the loot with a total insurance value of at least 113.8 million euros.
