In recent years most nations have recognized that they have a responsibility to guarantee that every effort is made to effect the return of property confiscated from its rightful owners during World War II. It is estimated that over 600,000 works of art were looted from families all over occupied Europe, particularly in Russia, Germany, France, Belgium and Poland from 1939-1944. Jewish families, Freemasons, and political opponents of the Third Reich were favorite targets of such activity.

Mondex Corporation has experience in both locating unclaimed spoils of war and proving ownership. If you or any members of your family are seeking to recover works of art that were either looted or purchased in forced sales by Nazi officers or their art dealers, we encourage you to contact us.
