Krystyna Ceynowa : ウィキペディア英語版 | Krystyna Ceynowa
Krystyna Ceynowa, also spelled as ''Cejnowa'' (died 1836), was an ethnic Polish victim of murder by lynching and an alleged witch in Germany. Accused of sorcery, she was subjected to the ordeal of water and drowned in Ceynowa (today Chałupy). She was among the last people in Europe to be subjected to lynching on the grounds of sorcery and witchcraft. == Background == Krystyna Ceynowa was the widow of a fisherman, living at Ceynowa on the Hel Peninsula, in the German Province of Prussia. She was regarded as suspicious by the community for various reasons, such as the fact that she was not a church-going person, which gave her a bad reputation in the eyes of the congregation: she never went to mass, and it was said that black crows were attracted to her chimney. People suspected that she was a witch. The authorities, however, were not willing to conduct a witch trial at this time.
