…on May 30, 1096 in Prague in Bohemia.
The Catholic Bishop Cosmas attempts to prevent forced conversions, and the entire Catholic hierarchy in Bohemia preaches against such acts.
Duke Břetislav II is out of the country and the Catholic Church's officials' protests are unable to stop the mob of crusaders.
At Visegrad, near Prague, five hundred Jews, together with one thousand soldiers of the Duke, defeat the attacking crusaders, thus escaping the fate of many other Central European Jewish communities.
However, the Jewish settlement is destroyed and not rebuilt.
Jews arriving from the west in Prague are not permitted to reside in the city, and so move east to Poland.
