Remembering 1692 at the Salem Witch Trials Memorial & Proctor’s Ledge
In January 2016, local scholars and researchers confirmed the location where the innocent victims of the Salem Witch Trials were executed at Proctor’s Ledge. In the years since the tragic events of 1692 many believed that the hangings occurred at Gallows Hill, but the earliest maps still accessible today never showed a clear marker for the execution site. By the 1920s, historian Sidney Perley suggested that the executions occurred on Proctor’s Ledge, which sits at the bottom of Gallows Hill. It was not until 2010 when researchers and historians began to reconsider Perley’s evidence, concluding that Proctor’s Ledge was indeed the site where the executions took place.
