Heart of Frédéric Chopin
- ... that Chopin's heart (composer pictured) was smuggled into Poland by his sister? Source: "In early 1850, a few months after her brother’s death, Jędrzejewicz smuggled the assemblage into Poland, hiding it under her cloak in order to elude the attentions of Austrian and Russian inspectors."
- ALT1: ... that Chopin's heart (composer pictured) was smuggled into Poland and taken by Nazis? Source: "In early 1850, a few months after her brother’s death, Jędrzejewicz smuggled the assemblage into Poland, hiding it under her cloak in order to elude the attentions of Austrian and Russian inspectors. .... The urn passed into the hands of Heinz Reinefarth, a high-ranking S.S. officer who professed to be a Chopin admirer. For the remainder of the uprising, the heart was kept at the headquarters of Erich von dem Bach-Zelewski, the infamously brutal commander of German forces in the region."

- Comment: There are other image options as well. The only other photo of Chopin is superior, but I opted for this one in the article as it seemed woefully underused. I'm open to hook and image suggestions.
