The 10 most secure locations in the world


Fort Knox isn't the largest known store of gold in the world, however. That distinction goes to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, which holds 6,350 tons (as of 2015) of the precious metal 80 feet below street level in Manhattan.

The vault is protected by this 90-ton steel cylinder set in a 140-ton concrete frame which, when closed, creates a water- and air-tight seal. Security inside the vault is so tight that a three-person internal team must be present any time one of its compartments are open.
