Whenever July 26th arrives who can help but recall the Erfurt Latrine Disaster of 1184?

The info has been updated with some more connections for 2025, but to refresh your recollection, the on-deck HRE brought together a bunch of nobles in Erfurt to negotiate a conflict, and too many people were in the conference room for the floor to handle; it collapsed, and the high and mighty dropped into the cesspit below. There were more than 60 fatalities.
If you can't get enough German podcast discussions about nobility and poo, here is 15 minutes more:

I also notice that the original massacre of Jews in Erfurt in the Spring of 1349 (as many as 3000 killed, the rest expelled) has been more recently overlaid with the school massacre of 26 April 2002 (16 killed, mostly teachers and admins).

Interesting that the article about 2002 is longer than the one about 1349.
Jews returned to Erfurt and reestablished a community, which lasted until the next expulsion in 1458.
At least there wasn't any more trouble in Erfurt besides these exceptions, amirite?
