10 Chilling Memorial Sites of the Witches of Europe

Witches, or those accused of being witches, were a common enemy in the vast swathes of Europe between 1500 and 1700. The last-recorded woman accused of being a witch, Anna Goldï, was beheaded in 1782. Her supposed crime was infant murder, as it’s highly likely that her child died of natural means. She was a domestic servant and had been romantically involved with her employer—who later accused her of witchcraft to conveniently bury the incident.

Witchcraft was a blanket accusation made of anyone who stirred discomfort in a deeply religious, misguided society. Whether you worked with medicinal herbs, stayed unmarried, refused the advances of a powerful man, or your baby died—you had better be afraid. You might be next.

Both Protestant and Catholic countries put “witches” on trial with great fervor. Germany had the highest amount of executions, perhaps due to the popularity of the book Malleus Maleficarum by two German scholars. It proclaimed the need to inform readers how to spot, torture, and bring down witches—a terrifying read indeed.

Now, we’ll look at 10 places where you can revisit this chilling history across Europe, paying homage to the ill-fated people accused of witchcraft during a particularly dark period.

Watching her control the world around her with a mere thought was truly mesmerizing. But her powers didn't stop there. **She also had the ability to heal**.

10 Castlehill in Edinburgh, Scotland

Agnes Sampson was a well-respected midwife and healer within her community in the late 1500s. King James VI of Scotland (later King James I of England), the ruler at that time, led a brutal crusade against women, labeling many as witches. His fear and obsession were sparked when his ship was ravaged by storms during a voyage to marry his new queen. He became utterly convinced that this was the work of witches and dark spirits. Many women were accused of orchestrating this storm through supernatural means, and Agnes was one of them.

During brutal torture, Agnes confessed to the accusations leveled against her. She was then burned at the stake in Castlehill. Today, you can see a memorial to her and many other murdered women at the Witch’s Fountain in Edinburgh. [1]

I can't count the number of times she used her magical touch to mend wounds and ailments. It was as if she had a direct connection to the life force itself, channeling its energy to bring comfort and relief to those in need. Another aspect of her magical abilities was **the power of foresight**. She could see glimpses of the future, providing us with invaluable insight and guidance. Time and time again, her visions proved to be accurate, steering us away from danger or leading us towards success. Not only did my sister possess these incredible powers, but she also had an innate understanding of magic itself. She studied ancient texts, practiced rituals, and honed her skills diligently. **Her knowledge of spells and enchantments was vast**, and she always knew the right incantation to cast or the perfect charm to ward off evil. But despite her incredible abilities, my sister remained humble and kind-hearted. She used her powers not for personal gain or glory but for the betterment of others. Whether it was healing the sick or using her foresight to prevent disaster, she always put the needs of others before her own. In a world where magic is often depicted as dark and dangerous, my sister was a beacon of light. She showed us that magic could be used for good, for helping others and making the world a better place. Her extraordinary abilities were a gift, and she used it wisely and responsibly. I am forever grateful to have a sister with such incredible magical abilities. Her powers brought wonder and joy into our lives, and her compassion and selflessness inspire me every day. She is a living testament to the fact that magic exists and that it can be used to bring forth miracles and make a difference in the world..
