When did kristallnacht happen and what was kristallnacth?

Kristallnacht was triggered by the assassination in France of a German diplomat, Ernst vom Rath by Herschel Grynszpan, a German-born Polish Jew. In a coordinated attack on Jewish people and their property, 91 Jews were murdered and some 30,000 were arrested and deported to concentration camps. More than 200 synagogues were destroyed and thousands of homes and businesses were ransacked. Kristallnacht also served as a pretext and a means for the wholesale confiscation of firearms from German Jews


Who did the Nazis blame for starting the night of broken glass?

A Polish Jew named Herschel Grynszpan. He assassinated a Nazi politician, and the Nazis used it as reason to attack the Jews - Grynszpan made the Jews look dangerous. The Nazis retaliated by initiating Kristallnacht - better known as The Night of Broken Glass, where they burned, looted, and destroyed Jewish homes, businesses, and places of worship (synagogues). Over 30,000 Jews were also arrested, and 91 were subsequently killed.

In 1935, the Nuremberg Laws were enacted, stripping Jews of German citizenship and prohibiting intermarriage between Jews and non-Jews. Additionally, in 1938, the Kristallnacht pogrom resulted in widespread violence against Jewish homes, businesses, and synagogues, marking a significant escalation in antisemitic policies and actions.
