    The witch monument, Vardø, Norway


    The witch monument is a memorial to the victims of atrocities during the burning of witches in Vardø.
    The monument is a collaboration between the artist Louise Bourgeois and architect Peter Zumthor.
    Vardø is the place in Norway where most witches were condemned and burned at the stake. Between
    1598 and 1692 135 persons were indicted and 91 were executed as witches in Finnmark, the vast
    majority in Vardø. Many of these were of Sami ancestry. The monument is erected at the place where
    the burning of witches originally happened, Steilneset in Vardø. e-architect hope to bring you images
    of this extraordinary memorial soon.
