Chevalier Ernest Thorn's Grave


 

Chevalier Ernest Thorn was one of the greatest illusion designer/creators of the 19/20th Century, but he is sadly mostly forgotten today. I have a blog article on his illusions that you can find here: https://www.themagicdetective.com/2020/01/the-illusions-of-chevalier-ernest-thorn.html as well as a podcast episode on his life, which you can find here: https://magicdetectivepodcast.com/e/ep-41-chevalier-ernest-thorn-european-grand-illusionist/

He died May 21st, 1928 and is buried in the Old Jewish Cemetery in Leipzig Germany.
