The story of Dutch Schultz's lost Treasure has inspired a movie, books, documentaries, a PBS special, and many treasure hunters looking for loot in the Catskills. People still flock to Phoenicia, looking for lost treasure. |
Schultz had ties to the area. He was involved in gambling in Saratoga Springs, and had an aunt who lived nearby. Schultz also hid out from the FBI and IRS just to the south in Saratoga County. |
Dutch Schultz (Arthur Flegenheimer) was a New York gangster of the 1930s who made his fortune in bootlegging, loan sharking, the numbers racket, and murder. Schultz became a powerful figure with a reputation for ruthlessness. |
