Rabbi Loew - A rabbi who lived in Prague in the late 16th century.

History

To protect the Jewish community there from pogroms, in 1580 he created the Golem and brought it to life, then instructed it in its purpose. He is an ancestor of Max Loew.

Real World History

Rabbi Loew was a real historical figure. His full name was Judah Loew ben Bezalel (1513-1609), and he was a noted rabbi in Prague during the late 16th century, famed for his scholarliness; even the Holy Roman Emperor met with him in 1592.
