Abstract

The reason for these events was unjust accusation of Jews by some Poles desiring to create a Jewish state in Poland the so called Judeo-Polonia. Riots took place on November 11 during the meeting of the Zionists, which took place at the Apollo Theatre. As a result of some unexplained to this day circumstances Kielce citizens attacked Zionists gathered in the theater, which resulted in the death of four Jews. In this article the Polish-Jewish relations, the course of the pogrom, and its aftermath will be presented.
