Expulsion Decree, issued by Erich the Younger, Duke of Luneburg and Brunswick [Present-day Germany]: “We, Erich, by God’s Grace Duke of Brunswick and Luneburg, herewith proclaim that, because we have learned that the Jews and their relatives, by way of their forbidden handling of gold and silver coins and exchange thereof, have violated the common laws of the holy empire, […] the Jews, with their wives, children and all of their possessions, may they be in cities, townships, markets, villages or any other place, are hereby banned from our duchy and exiled therefrom.”
