The remaining portions of the treasure, which had not been distributed or left
behind at Merkers, were transported to Heinrich Himmler's Wewelsburg fortress
near Paderborn. All of the Holy Relics, including the Emerald Cup, were
contained in this shipment. The priceless collection, with the exception of
the Cup, was buried deep beneath the castle wall. The exact hiding place has
never been precisely determined but it is believed to be somewhere under the
steep rocky slope which supports the great north tower of the castle and
plunges precipitously into the river valley below (see Ill. 45-46). According
to persistent rumors, at least a part of the treasure was sent to the
"Externsteine" where it was sealed off in one of the many grottoes which pock-
mark the great rock formation (see Ill. 38 and 47).

The Cup is believed to have been exhibited to Himmler's innermost circle of
senior Knights of the Holy Lance on several occasions. Between these rare
ceremonies the Emerald Cup and Himmler's duplicate Holy Lance were kept in a
large safe which was imbedded deep within the castle's thick walls. Only the
Reichsfuhrer had a key to the safe and its very existence was known only to
him and General Siegfried Taubert, the castle warden.
Near the end of the war, when Wewelsburg was overrun by American forces, on
April 2, 1945, the safe was blown open by soldiers of the U.S. 3rd Armored
Division. It was found to contain a large quantity of documents. These papers
promptly disappeared. It is unknown whether or not they contained information
about the Lance or the Cup or the Holy Relics of Solomon's Treasure.
