Witch Trials Memorial: Honoring Courage and Remembering Injustice

Witch Trials Memorial: Honoring Courage and Remembering Injustice

About

Striking in its simplicity, the Memorial is surrounded on three sides by a handcrafted granite wall. Inscribed in the stone threshold entering the Memorial are the victims’ protests of innocence. These protests are interrupted mid‑sentence by the wall, symbolizing society’s indifference to oppression.

Six locust trees—last to bloom and first to lose their leaves—represent the injustice of the trials. Benches inside the Memorial perimeter bear the names and execution dates of each of the 20 victims, creating a quiet, contemplative space that honors the courage of those who chose to die rather than compromise their personal truths.

The Witch Trials Memorial is located on Liberty Street between Charter Street and Derby Street. It is open from dawn to dusk, is handicap‑accessible, and welcomes visitors of all ages.
