Thank you!!! I understand that “they’re” trying to recreate it. I’d rather that they FIND the original...It’s the mystery.

It's pretty definite that, apart from a few pieces, it was destroyed by fire when the Red Army overran Konigsberg. Soviet investigators determined as much soon after the war. Like the "HItler escaped" meme (which they also knew was a lie), it was kept alive by Stalin as a way to dig at the West and just took on a life of its own.
