Step into the shadows of 1697 and discover the true story behind Scotland's last mass witch trial. This guided walking tour takes you through the very streets where history unfolded, as seven people — mostly women — were accused of witchcraft and sentenced to death in Paisley. Visit the site of their imprisonment, the place of their execution at Gallows Green, and the spot where a horseshoe was cast into the ground to silence their curse.

Along the way, you'll explore Paisley Abbey, the surrounding graveyard, and the modern memorial that honours the lives lost. Learn how a young girl's illness sparked panic, how justice failed, and how these events shaped the town's legacy.

Led by passionate local guides, this tour offers a powerful insight into a tragic chapter of Scotland's past. £2.50 from every ticket is donated to the Renfrewshire Witch Hunt 1697 memorial fund.
