• The unexplained death of 16-year-old Werner von Oberwesel near Bacharach on the Middle Rhine , who presumably fell victim to a sexual crime , led to widespread waves of pogroms against the Jews along the river , according to deliberately spread rumors of ritual murder , which are controlled by Christian anti-Judaist prejudices typical of the time Rheins, in which over 100 locations between Emmerich ( Lower Rhine ) and Winterthur ( Upper Rhine ) are involved. The Jewish communities then turn to King Rudolf I , who is convinced of the baselessness of the accusations. He imposed a fine on the murderers of the Jews and ordered that Werner's corpse be cremated to prevent further veneration. However, this instruction is not followed.
