The British Museum in London is famous for more than just its historical and cultural significance. In 2019, human rights lawyer Geoffrey Robertson told The Guardian that 'the trustees of the British Museum have become the world's largest receivers of stolen property, and the great majority of their loot is not even on public display.'
