inscription underneath explaining that this is where in 1933 the Nazis burn a load of books okay which books they did they uh burn ones written by Jews yeah ones written by professors whose ideas they did not like so Heidelberg had not really been affected by anti-Semitism before 1933 when the Nazis came into power they ruled that anyone with Jewish roots cannot teach or study here okay a whole third of the teaching Community had to leave the university all right now a prison sentence in the student prison typically lasted four to 5 days okay the first 3 days you were not allowed to drink
