The Increase in Anti-Jewish Terror in Germany in 1938
The rise in anti-Jewish terror in Germany in 1938 was fueled by the Nazis' belief that addressing the 'Jewish Question' was crucial for winning the war in Europe.

The destruction of the great synagogue in Munich and Newenburg had deep symbolic significance, reflecting both Nazi triumph and the tragic loss of Jewish integration into German society. These events were pivotal moments that dispelled any remaining illusions about the Nazis' intentions and marked the beginning of mandatory labeling and economic persecution of German Jews to force them out of society.
