St Fagans National Museum of History, located in a village in the leafy outskirts of Cardiff, is one Wales’ most popular heritage attractions.
More than 40 buildings, representing different eras of Welsh history, have been re-erected in the grounds of the museum.
The museum’s main building, where the robbery took place last month, was redeveloped in a £30m overhaul in 2018, adding three new galleries and helping the museum clinch the prestigious Art Fund Museum of the Year award in 2019.
Speaking at the time, the chair of the judges, called the museum “a truly democratic museum” that “lives and breathes the culture, history and identity of Wales”.
