World War II is the source of hundreds of unsolved mysteries. `World War Weird' explores some of World War II's most confounding stories, from platoons that disappeared to strange `alien' war machines, each bringing its own set of unique and bizarre twists, turns and revelations. In the fast paced and frantic chaos of battle, there was no way for these inexplicable occurrences to be investigated. However, thanks to extensive archive footage, expert interviews and eyewitness accounts, the truth behind some of these instances can now be unearthed.

Meet the architects behind the Nazi war machine. The Führer's most prominent planners, designers, architects, and builders tried to downplay their role in the Holocaust, but the truth is now exposed.

Historian Guy Walters and Justine Ostrowska embark on a 4,000-kilometre journey across Europe, chasing legends of hidden Nazi treasure. From the mines of Germany and the Amber Room mysteries of Czechia, to stolen art in Austria, the Gold Train myths of Poland, bunker hunts in Italy, and the infamous waters of Lake Toplitz, their search combines discovery and eccentric encounters. Though every site yields more myth than treasure, the series reveals how obsession, paranoia, and history intertwine.
