THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS
Exhibit Will Show History of European Jews
Both positive and nega-
tive aspects of the history of
the Jews in Europe will be
seen in March at the "Jews
of Prussia" exhibition spon-
sored by the Holocaust
Memorial Center at the
Jewish Community Center
in March.
European Jewry's history
includes:
1096 — Persecution of the
Jews began in Europe with
the first Crusade. The fana-
tic Crusaders killed Jewish
families, ransacked their
homes, and destroyed all
synagogues.

1215 — The Fourth Late-
ran Council branded the
Jews as outcasts of society
and severely limited their
rights.
1510 — Two holy wafers
had been stolen by a Chris-
tian tinker from the church.
The incident was sub-
sequently blamed on a Jew
and, as a result, 100 Jews
were thrown into jail and 39
burned at the stake.
1543 — Luther attacked
the Jews because they re-
fused to convert to Chris-
tianity. He demanded that
their synagogues and
schools be burned and their
right to freedom be re-
scinded.
1571 — In Berlin, after
the false arrest and convic-
tion of a Jewish merchant,
the comptroller expelled all
Jews from Brandenburg.
For a century Jews were
barred from town and coun-
try.
1873-1896 — The Jews
were accused of being the
main culprits of the "Great
Depression."
1933 — The Nazis gain
power in Germany.
Dr. Roland Klemig, direc-
UNLIMITED
for of the Picture Archive of
Prussian Culture in Berlin,
conceived and developed the
exhibit, "The Jews in Ger-
many Under Prussian
Rule." The exhibit features
more than 1,000 photo-
graphs and montages de-
picting Prussian Jewry
from the time of the
Crusades until the
Holocaust.
Until now, . this in-depth
pictorial study has been on
display only in Berlin. But,
March 4-28, the Holocaust
Memorial Center is bring-
ing this exhibit to Detroit
with the cooperation of the
Jewish Community Center,
West German Consul Dr.
Josef Deutz, the Leo Baeck
Institute in New York, the
West German Foreign
Ministry and Lufthansa
German Airlines.
Accompanying the ex-
hibit will be a series of
scheduled events including
films, speakers and a panel
discussion.
