The Spanish Inquisition.
The majority of observant and semi-observant Jews practice their religion everywhere they go, during all their waking hours.
The people persecuted in the Spanish Inquisition were "New Christians", which is to say Jews and Muslims who converted to Christianity in order to continue living in Spain (since Judaism and Islam were banned), but who were believed to be secretly practicing their faith of birth. Hundreds of thousands of Jews and Muslims who converted to Christianity were persecuted. Later, the Spanish Inquisition also persecuted Protestant reformers.
It would only be those Germans who did not consider themselves as Jewish who would be prosecuted, they would have to prove that they were not Jewish, but lived as gentiles. Jews were generally not prosecuted as they were not given the luxury of a trial
