The 'legend' of the Štěchovice treasure (in Czech Štěchovický poklad) in the Czech Republic is based on the novel The Prague Connection and the excavation of The Prague Archives in 1946. The story implicates that Emil Klein, a Nazi general, buried in tunnels in Hradistko, near Stěchovice, war booty containing gold, diamonds, jewelry and pieces of art, but also secret files and scientific documents from the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute.
