it literally means Chrystal Night but is referred to in English as "the night of broken glass"
________
The Kristallnacht was the first deadly attack on the Jews, and considered by many to be the start of the Holocaust. It took place all across Nazi Germany, Austria and the Sudetenland in 1938, where Jewish businesses, synagogues (places of worship) and homes were ransacked and burnt. Jews were rounded up and arrested by the dozen.
In all, some 400 Jews were dead at the end of the Kristallnacht pogrom, and more than 30,000 were sent to concentration camps.
(Note: Many serious sources still blindly quote the official Nazi figure of 91 dead. This figure has since been discredited and historic research now places the number of those who died at the hands of Nazi thugs during Kristallnacht at around 400)
