  1. Wikipedia is most likely where it is


  2. Sorry the only Witches I know are of the Salem Witch Trials. Try going to a big Library.

  3. I found this list googling "Witchhunt Germany":

    http://www.sacred-texts.com/pag/burning....

    It also has the eames of German witches in it, so all you need to do is read through it and find out...

  4. Most likely not - However - I know that there are still  churchbooks, where there are lists written down of people that have been burned from that period. These books are hard to get to though.

  5. Burning of witches originally came from South France and North Italy. Germany later started the chase and burning of witches which mainly took place during 16th and 17the century. Hundredthousands of women died very painfully after the "Geistliche Gericht" (holy court) sentenced them to death. In order to have evidence the women were tortured until they confessed, and then burnt at the stake.

    Here are some links for you, however, the first one's in German:
