• Edict of Expulsion of Jews from England On July 18, 1261, King Edward I of England issued the Edict of Expulsion, a devastating decree that mandated the complete banishment of approximately 16,000 Jewish residents from the kingdom. This event occurred on Tisha B'Av, a significant day of mourning in the Jewish calendar commemorating the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem, adding a layer of historical and cultural poignancy to the expulsion. The edict represented a profound moment of antisemitic persecution, forcing Jewish communities to leave their homes, properties, and established lives, and marking a dark chapter in medieval English history.
