Baden-Württemberg: Divers are looking for treasure in Lake Constance

Überlingen (dpa/lsw) - Numerous divers looked for a hidden treasure in Lake Constance on Epiphany after a break caused by corona. The traditional event started early in the morning. The divers Cristian Sutter, Pascal Epp, Manuel Sigwart and Nicolai Bestek from the Singen diving club on Lake Constance found the box painted with a skull at a depth of around 40 meters near Überlingen.

A total of almost 300 divers came. Incidentally, there was no real treasure hidden in the 20 to 25 kilogram box. It was filled with coupons and rum - there were metal objects next to it to make it heavier. The event has been around for around 50 years.
