MAN FINDS A HIDDEN ROOM IN HIS OLD ATTIC, BUT NO ONE WAS READY FOR WHAT WAS INSIDE

By Shruti

Rudi Schlattner now well into his 80s decided to go back and explore his former family home. Their old family home had been transformed into a kindergarten turning it into something completely different from what it was. Rudi was still very determined to go back and discover a hidden treasure lying dormant in the house. The image below shows how the home looks like in the modern day. Rudi Schlattner was just a kid living his everyday life before his family had to flee. The building has been home to a various other families since the Schlattner family said their goodbyes.

Rudi wanted to go back and revisit his old home for two basic reasons: to hopefully find old family heirloom and valuables, plus he wanted to see what all had changed. Although the school is now a full-fledged kindergarten, he was full of hope.When Rudi finally made his way into the old house, he went to the attic, then approached a loose board with a string tied to it. This had never been noticed by the others before. It was clear that he knew exactly where he wanted to look, that his memory was still fresh.

Lucky For Him

Rudi was hoping and praying that what he was looking for would still be there as he pulled on the string of the wood-board. Lucky for him, behind that board lay multiple items that Rudi’s family left behind. Although they were kept in such a small compartment, nothing went missing. It is so unbelievable that so much could fit inside a small space right? Employees at a nearby museum in Usti nad Labem came over to look at the discovery. They very carefully examined and studied each of the items individually.

Thrilled: Rudi Schlattner was forced to flee the family home as part of a mass expulsion of Germans from Czechoslovakia
