A lot has been said over the past decades about people from the failed Adolf Hitler regime in Germany escaping to South America, particularly to Brazil and Argentina, as a lot of evidence has been found of Nazi population in the region - now, even a secret Nazi hideout.

It's an exciting time for archeology in the Americas, as only a couple of weeks back, researchers found the remains of two lost cities in the Central American nation of Honduras which date back hundreds of years - though, of course, the discovery of the secret Nazi hideout is neither as old nor remotely as positive.

According to The Guardian, ruins of what's thought to have been a secret Nazi hideout were found by archeologists in a remote jungle region of Argentina, a country that saw many German immigrants after World War II, as people who were fleeing the Nazis and others who had been a part of the Third Reich arrived in the South American country.

The Washington Post reports that the outlet to break the news about the found secret Nazi hideout was local newspaper El Clarin. They reported that the archeologists found ruins deep in the Argentina jungle in the Teyú Cuaré Park, hundreds of miles north and near the border with Paraguay - it was there where they found a path that uncovers a complex of mysterious buildings, where coins and other mementos of 40s Germany were found.

Besides Hitler-era coins, the archeologists also found a porcelain plate that was marked as having been made in Germany.

According to Time Magazine, the secret Nazi hideout was seemingly intended to be a safe haven for those fleeing Germany after the Reich lost WWII.

"Apparently, halfway through World War II, the Nazis had a secret project of building shelters for top leaders in the event of defeat - inaccessible sites, in the middle of deserts, in the mountains, on a cliff or in the middle of the jungle like this," said Daniel Schávelzon, the leader of the team of archeologists who found the secret Nazi hideout, to Clarín.
