Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar

Bilansky requested a private execution but at this point in the 19th century public executions were typical as they served civil and religious purposes to deter crime and demonstrate the danger of sin. The gallows were set up in an enclosure in Court House Square. Around 100 onlookers watched from inside the enclosure while thousands more watched from outside the enclosure.
(23 March 1860)



There are 3376 births, 3943 deaths, 1122 murders, 498 disasters and 2079 other events about 5732 people in 6441 places until today.

Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar is an ongoing project since 1985 by DDV.
