Am 23. Februar 1945 wurde Pforzheim bei einem Angriff 379 britischer Bomber fast völlig zerstört. Innerhalb von 22 Minuten fanden bis zu 17.600 Menschen den Tod. Die Bomber und der Feuersturm, der sich in der engbebauten Altstadt entwickelte, töteten damit 31,4 % der Bevölkerung der Stadt. Nach Hamburg und Dresden war dies der Angriff mit den meisten Opfern.

During the latter stages of World War II, Pforzheim, a town in southwestern Germany, was bombed a number of times. The largest raid, and one of the most devastating area bombardments of the war was carried out by the Royal Air Force (RAF) on the evening of February 23, 1945. About one fifth of the town's population, over 17,000 people, were killed in the air raid, and about 83% of the town's buildings were destroyed.
