Saint Petersburg and its surrounding territories are full of mysteries and enigmas. That is why treasures are constantly and everywhere found here. It is an ancient trading crossroads that changed owners, endured invasions and natural disasters, and people hid and lost their possessions—but valuable things can be found not only in the ground. Old houses, built back in the tsarist era, also hold many secrets. It is believed that the peak period for treasure appearances was during the revolution and war. People tried to hide their accumulated wealth from looting, but often there was no one left to return for what was left behind. Thus, these countless riches lie within the walls, floors, and hiding places. In the last 200 years, 55 large treasures have been discovered in Saint Petersburg, and these are only the registered finds. But the ones that have not yet been found are much more interesting. They stir the imagination and sometimes give rise to completely incredible legends.
