For four years, Globocnik collected the cash, gold and jewelry from the gassed prisoners, as well as from many other sources in his district of the General Gouvernment (as conquered Poland was called) Instead of forwarding all to Berlin, he kept a good portion of the treasure for himself.
Globocnik, who ended up in Syria as a corresponding member of the CIA-controlled Gehlen Organization, was never able to recover any of his hidden treasure, but his disclosures to his captors, and later employers, led to an extensive treasure hunt after the war.
It was at this hotel that Globocnik and his staff made their headquarters in April of 1945 and it is right near the Enzian building that an additional three million in gold and, according to the papers, a fortune in diamonds, was buried.
