Salem Witch Village

Salem Witch Village presents exhibits on the myths and facts surrounding Witchcraft. Visitors can explore the legends, superstitions and propaganda. A highlight of the village is a memorial to the victims of the Salem Witch trials of 1692. It was dedicated on August 5, 1992 by Nobel Laureate Elie Wiesel. The memorial, inscribed with protests of the accused, is a testament to the need for tolerance and justice.
