Descriptionof Monuments Men

On the hunt for Hitler's looted art. It is a race against time: the National Socialists organise the "greatest theft in history" and have more than five million art objects from the occupied territories of Europe brought into the Reich for the "Führer Museum". When the Allies land in Normandy, a special unit is among them: the "Monuments Men". Their mission: to protect important cultural assets from destruction, to track down stolen and missing works of art - paintings by Leonardo, Vermeer and Rembrandt, sculptures by Michelangelo.

Robert M. Edsel tells the story of the breathtaking treasure hunt based on the personal letters and diaries of the key figures - right up to the dramatic showdown in the Altaussee salt mine.

Already translated into 19 languages.

The basis for the film by and with George Clooney.
