bavaria will investigate claims looted art returned nazis 558638
The Bavarian Parliament has unanimously ordered a comprehensive investigation into revelations that the state returned Nazi-looted artworks to the families of high-ranking Nazi officials instead of their rightful Jewish owners. A report by the Commission for Looted Art in Europe (CLAE) exposed that state-owned museums in Munich profited from these stolen works for decades, in some cases selling them back to Nazi descendants at nominal prices or keeping them in public collections.
