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.
