description Abstract The Spanish flu was a global health crisis of enormous extent and consequences. This disease hit Saxony at a time of social, economic and political challenges. It spread rapidly while World War I was coming to its end and the radical political change in the country was beginning. How did this crisis affect the political reorganisation in the country? What is its significance in the context of the political unrest and the extreme social deficiencies after the Wold War? Did the flu sound the death knell of the monarchy?
