Page "Szeged" Paragraph 7
from
Wikipedia
Szeged was first pillaged by the Turkish army on 28 September 1526, but was occupied only in 1543, and became an administrative centre of the Ottomans ( see Ottoman Hungary ).
The town was freed from Turkish rule on 23 October 1686, and regained the free royal town status in 1715.
However, these years brought not only prosperity and enlightenment ; between 1728 and 1744 witch trials were frequent in the town ; in 1728-29, the perhaps largest Hungarian witch trial was held here.
