Salem Witch Trials Memorial
Salem Witch Trials Memorial Review
Dedicated by Nobel Laureate Elie Wiesel in 1992, this melancholy space—an antidote to the relentless marketing of the merry-witches motif—honors those who died because they refused to confess that they were witches. A stone wall is studded with 20 stone benches, each inscribed with a victim's name, and sits next to Salem's oldest burying ground.
- Address: Off Liberty St. near Charter St., Salem, MA, 01970
- Website: www.salemweb.com/memorial/memorial.shtml
- Location: Salem
