Beer uprising starts in Frankfurt
151
years ago
21 April 1873,
He started the beer uprising in Frankfurt. When the city's brewers decided to raise prices, many citizens began to organize disturbances and the Prussian police also had to call the army to restore order. During the days of the rebellion, they held a demonstration after a red flag made with a curtain. The press attributed the event to the dissemination of communist ideas, as it was the most violent event between the revolutions of 1844 and 1918 in Frankfurt with several deaths. At that time, beer was a staple food for the working class in Germany and managed to avoid the increase in beer prices.
