- "This lightsaber was stolen from your Jedi Temple by my ancestors during the fall of the Old Republic. Since then many Jedi have died upon its blade. Prepare yourself to join them!"
- ―Pre Vizsla, to Obi-Wan Kenobi
The sacking of the Jedi Temple occurred during the fall of the Old Republic when the Mandalorians[3] launched an assault on the Jedi Order.[5] The sacking allowed members of the House Vizsla to steal the Darksaber from the Jedi Temple.[1]

Notes and references[]
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 Star Wars Rebels — "Trials of the Darksaber"
- ↑ According to Star Wars: Timelines, Tarre Vizsla created the darksaber sometime around 1050 BBY, therefore it can be deduced that the Mandalorians sacked the Jedi Temple and recovered the darksaber sometime after 1050 BBY.
