"In the picturesque South-eastern German town of Passau, a group of construction workers happened upon a stash of gold while performing demolition work.

Inscribed with the words "Swiss Bank," the gold bullion is expected to be worth just under a million euros ($1.12 million, spokeswoman for the Bavarian city told "Passauer Neue Presse," the German news agency DPA reported.

The discovery of gold at the construction site occurred twice in the same week, once on Wednesday and again on Friday, the first time of which was discovered by the construction worker.

Police authorities in Passau, also know as the "City of Three Rivers," confirmed on Saturday that the construction worker was a backhoe operator and could possibly lay claim to the gold."



Passau was the home of Adolf Hitler for two years from 1892 to 1894 so it's probably not his!
