SAINT-PAUL-TROIS-CHÂTEAUX
- SAINT-PAUL-TROIS-CHÂTEAUX
- SAINT-PAUL-TROIS-CHÂTEAUX, town in the Drôme department, S.E.
France. The first evidence of Jews in the town dates from 1206, when a
Jew named Benicrescas is mentioned in a document. In 1239 a "Tour des
Juifs" is recorded. Using the blood libel of Valréas as a
pretext, in 1247 the bishop of Saint-Paul had the Jews of his diocese
thrown into prison after he had stripped them of their belongings; Pope
Innocent IV firmly protested against his action. Even
after the Dauphiné – in which Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteux was situated –
had come under the authority of the king of France, Jews continued to
live in Saint-Paul. However, in 1486 only three families remained there,
and there is no further mention of the Jewish community after that date.
A Hebrew inscription in the presbytery hall could still be seen at the
close of the 19th century.
