Jewelery worth about 4 million euros (about €4 million) was stolen early Sunday from the Lalique Museum in the north-eastern part of France. This incident has happened at a time when after the major theft in the Louvre Museum last year, this museum was kept under special surveillance considering it a ‘sensitive site’ from security point of view. This information has been given in AFP and French media reports. At around 5:30 in the morning, several masked miscreants broke the door and entered the museum located in Wingen-sur-Moder in the Bas-Rhin department near the France-Germany border. They broke six display cases and fled with about 20 pieces of jewellery. The stolen jewelery was made of crystal and did not contain any precious stones. Therefore, it is not considered easy to sell them by melting them. This incident has come to light after the broad daylight theft in the Louvre Museum in Paris in October 2025. In that case, eight rare pieces of jewelery from the Crown Jewels of France were stolen, whose value was said to be around 88 million euros. On the same day, about 2,000 rare coins were also stolen from the Denis Diderot House of Enlightenment in the city of Langres in north-eastern France. A month before this, six rare gold nuggets worth about 1.5 million euros were also stolen from the National Museum of Natural History. Opened in 2011, the Lalique Museum is dedicated to the work of the renowned jeweler and glass artist René Lalique and his successors. The museum displays more than 650 works of art spanning Art Novo, Art Deco and modern crystal art. After the theft the museum has decided to remain closed for a few days.
