Judgment of the German Federal Court of Justice on the Wittenberg Judensau relief, the Bundesgerichtshof's own 2022 ruling, decides the legal claim seeking removal of the antisemitic medieval relief from Wittenberg's Stadtkirche. Its strength is that it is the court's own judgment, the primary legal record of what it held. Its limit is that it rules on the legal claim before it rather than offering an independent historical or religious studies account of the relief itself, which needs separate sources.
