What To Expect

A self-guided audio walking tour, based on the true story of Malin Matsdotter and the Stockholm witch trials.

The Stockholm witch trials culminated in 1676. Malin Matsdotter was one of many women accused and killed through public executions, but the only one to be burned alive.

Walk through Stockholm as it was 300 years ago and visit several historical sites at Södermalm. Your narrator is twelve-year-old Gertrud, who lived next door to Malin. She is worried that history might repeat itself and wants to share Malin’s story with you.

This tour is self-guided via a GPS-based app downloaded to your smartphone. When you buy the tour you receive an email with instructions on how to download the app which serves as your guide and narrator. Listen to the story while you walk. Sounds, illustrations, and game elements are triggered to show up on your mobile screen when you get close to them.

This experience is completely flexible: you can start, pause and end it whenever it suits you.
