Stock Photo - Historians unwrap hidden things in Usti nad Labem Museum, Czech Republic, August 4, 2015. Rudi Schlattner showed the hiding place to historians on July 28. He has uncovered property that his ethnic German family hid in the attic of their house in Libouchec near Usti nad Labem before they had to leave it 70 years ago. Schlattner was 13 years old when his family had to leave former Czechoslovakia after World War Two within the transfer of ethnic Germans. Schlattner said his family had believed that they would be able to return to live in the house after some time again. This had not happened. The unwrapping and identifying of the items may take weeks or even months, but its even more extraordinary because Schlattner is ready to identify the revealed items. The discovery of items hidden by the German inhabitants after the war is unique in the Usti Region. At least some of the items may be shown to the public at an exhibition focusing on the local developments in 1945 that will open in the Usti museum in September. (CTK Photo/Libor Zavoral)
