In February 1349, as the Black Death swept through Europe, the entire Jewish community of Strasbourg was burned alive on a massive pyre in their own cemetery. This episode examines the St. George's Day Massacre, exploring how plague panic, economic resentment, and political maneuvering turned neighbors into murderers. We follow the role of the guilds, the failed protection by city officials, and the Emperor Charles IV's cynical revocation of Jewish charters. We also contrast Strasbourg with other towns like Basel and Freiburg, where different outcomes emerged. The episode includes voices from the Nuremberg Memorbuch and contemporary chroniclers like Jacob von Königshofen, who tried to defend the Jews. A grim but essential look at how societies fracture under fear. #Strasbourg #JewishHistory #BlackDeath #MedievalEurope #Pogrom #StGeorgesDay #1349 #JacobvonKönigshofen #NurembergMemorbuch #CharlesIV #HolyRomanEmpire #Guilds #Plague #Persecution #AlsatianHistory #MedievalCrime #FexingoHistory #History Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
