Salem - Rebecca Nurse Homestead

The Rebecca Nurse Homestead was built in 1678, in a saltbox style. It was the home of Rebecca Nurse, one of the victims of the 1692 witch-hunt. Even though many people signed a petition to declare her innocence, Nurse was still tried, convicted and hanged. It is presumed that her body is interred in a burial ground located close to the house.

Three restored rooms at the Rebecca Nurse Homestead contain period furnishings from the 17th and 18th century.
