German police say they have recovered A Number of 18th-century treasures stolen from a Dresden museum during a €113m (£98m; $119m) heist in 2019.

Authorities returned 31 objects to The Green Vault museum after being secured overnight in Berlin.

The items were reportedly found after talks with the lawyers of six men currently On Trial for the theft.

Authorities have given little detail about how The Jewels were secured.

The Trial of The Thieves , which started in January, is set to resume on Tuesday, AFP news agency reports.

The Green Vault collection is housed in eight ornate rooms in the Residenzschloss - a former Royal Palace .

Three rooms were destroyed by Allied bombing in World War Two, but after The War The Museum was restored to its previous glory.
