No.

1) It was made in the old world.
2) It’s a but uncertain where it is now, but the information I have found indicates that it’s still in the old world. At least it was the last time it was seen in public.

No.

Some trivia: During WWII it was hidden from the Nazis together with one of it’s "siblings". Another "sibling" was hidden elsewhere.

No religious significance.

More trivia: After the war this one and the two other "siblings" that were hidden away were sold for 3000 USD and two refrigerators. True story.

Not at all.

Trivia: In addition to the three "siblings" already mentioned, there are three more. All of them are different and have their own nickname. Some people think there might be a seventh one, but it’s probably only a myth.

Most of it, yes. But also other materials like wood and leather. (Giveaway?)

Rumour: The present owner is Japanese.
Fact (according to Wiki and other sources): It has been shown in recent years by a Swiss broker.

Yes, it was made in France. Somebody must know where it is, but it’s not public. Every now and then it is displayed. Where it is right now, I cannot tell. I think you’re getting warmer.

Trivia: App. 6.4 m  long.
