Witch trials in Denmark

Records from the trial against Anne Palles, the last person in Denmark to be executed for witchcraft in 1692.

The Witch trials in Denmark are poorly documented, with the exception of the region of Jylland in the 1609–1687 period. The most intense period in the Danish witchcraft persecutions was the great witch hunt of 1617–1625, when most executions took place, which was affected by a new witchcraft act introduced in 1617.[1]
