    2020.01.14 The Bavar­i­an Na­tion­al Mu­se­um has re­turned six pieces of sil­ver to the right­ful heirs of their for­mer own­ers. These items had been iden­ti­fied as Nazi-con­fis­cat­ed prop­er­ty. The items were orig­i­nal­ly owned by An­na and Karl Neumey­er and by Di­na and Leo Marx. A project fund­ed by the Ger­man Lost Art Foun­da­tion made it pos­si­ble to iden­ti­fy the heirs who have now re­ceived the ob­jects back. This was the first project fo­cused on find­ing heirs that the Foun­da­tion has fund­ed. (English)

    After the Nazi seizure of power, the Jewish Pringsheims were forced to sell their house to the National Socialists. The silver collection was confiscated by the Gestapo in 1938 and acquired by the Bayerisches Nationalmuseum in 1941. Following their restitution to Pringsheim’s heirs, the silver objects at the centre of this study are now scattered all over the globe. (English)
