This page would be more accurately described as a war trophy than an architectural trophy, since it refers to the spoils of war. Eliz81 14:25, 18 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

This page has been moved from Trophy (architectural) to War trophy as per your request. Dekimasuよ! 06:50, 26 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

After World War II, the Naval War Trophies Committee of the UK Government allocated some German works of art to various Museums. They were said to be "War Trophies" not "Looted Art". The articles Looted art and National Maritime Museum claim that "Looted art" includes allocations by the NWTC. It would be useful if this article were expanded to cover the varying views of the legality of "War trophies". Vernon White . . . Talk 22:25, 23 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Perhaps the links at Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict help. Vernon White . . . Talk 22:50, 23 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
