A German U boat (submarine) that was built in 1942, during WWII. There is a theory that Hitler sent the Holy Lance, a spear believed to have been the very one that pierced Christ's side on the cross to Antarctica on this U boat for safe keeping, apparently Hitler collected Biblical relics. However, somehow, this ship was torpedoed off the coast of Denmark and it sank. The shipwreck was apparently never found, creepy right?. however, the spear itself was claimed to have been found in 1973, and was then placed in a secret Nazi society in an unknown location in Europe. If U-534 did indeed have the spear, could one of Christianity's most interesting relics lie somewhere close to Denmark in a wrecked U-Boat? Or could it be somewhere yet to be explored? That remains to be seen...
