June 30 to July 2, 1934

Historians say that it began on June 29 and ended on June 30.

 

Night of the Long Knives

 

Adolph Hitler ordered his troops to carry out a large-scale purge of suspected dissidents within the Nazi party.

 

The night of the long knives was both a way for Hitler to strengthen his grip on power and a way for the chancellor to ensure the ongoing loyalty of the SS.
