What is kristallancht and what happned?
On November 9, 1938, Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels announced a government-sanctioned reprisal against the Jews. Synagogues were ravaged and then burned. Jewish shop windows were broken. Jews were beaten, raped, arrested, and murdered. Throughout Germany and Austria, the pogrom rampaged. Police and firefighters stood by as synagogues burned and Jews were beaten, only taking action to prevent the spread of fire to non-Jew owned property and to stop looters - upon SS officer Reinhard Heydrich's orders
Why were the attacks on Jews on November 9 1938 called kristallnacht or the night of the broken glass?
where the Nazis went round and killed 91 Jews, and took 30,000 male Jews to concentration camps. they also went round with hammers and broke everyones windows and doors, and smashed synagogues, leaving streets covered in broken glass, so it was called night of broken glass. cheers
