YES. There is a secret compartment as shown in the film National Treasure. The Queen of England made some modifications to the desk in 1927. If some people don't believe this, they are idiots.

Sorry kids, there are no secret compartments in the real Resolute Desk. There is a front panel that was added by President F. D. Roosevelt to hide his leg braces and wheelchair. There is a famous photo of Jon Jon Kennedy in it later. A good book about HMS RESOLUTE, the ship the desk was made from, has been written by Elizabeth Matthews - the historic notes at the back include the history of the Resolute desk itself- but the whole story begins with the ship and has such diverse characters as a sadistic commander, Quaker abolitionists, intrepid Arctic explorers, a pro-slavery senator, conniving politicians, an Irish sea captain's wife and her headstrong daughter, and Yankee whalers! Although there is a little room in the queens chamber
