Memorial inaugurated in 1992 by Nobel Prize winner Elie Wiesel, on the occasion of the 300th anniversary of the Salem Witch Trials
This memorial was inaugurated in 1992 by Nobel Prize winner Elie Wiesel on the occasion of the 300th anniversary of the Salem Witch Trials. 20 granite blocks join the Salem Cemetery, Old Burying Point, and are marked with the names of the accused and their date of execution. In 1692, 14 women and 6 men were accused of being witches. They were tried and executed that same year. In the adjacent cemetery (one of the oldest in the country), Judge Jonathan Hawthorne, the writer's great-grandfather, is buried alongside several Mayflower pilgrims.

Un lieu d'hommage réussi et paisible qui mérite un détour, surtout après s'être informé de l'histoire.

Impressionnant. L’histoire des sorcières de Salem telle que l’on ne l’a jamais entendue. Histoire de comprendre que la rumeur est dangereuse...
