Somber memorial featuring a series of stacked & inscribed granite stones abutting a burial ground.
3:00pm - Visit the Witch Trial Memorial to read more about the history of the trials and the victims

Benches within the Memorial perimeter bear the names and the execution dates of each of the 20 victims, creating a quiet, contemplative environment in which to evoke the spirit and strength of those people who chose to die rather than compromise their personal truths.
