The Murder on Knivstigen

about 1 h 15 min · 1–4 players

Vika parish in Dalarna, midsummer 1764. Two men from Sätra in Rättvik parish walk homeward along Knivstigen after hired work at Nyckelviken in Nacka — the parish man Olof Andersson and his brother's son, the discharged soldier Anders Andersson Gnola. At a small bog by the path they stop to rest, and the homecoming is delayed. Not until the following spring does a woodcutter find the bones of one of them. A real case from Dalarna's legal history: the actual trial, the confession and the execution. Everyone involved has been dead for more than two hundred years, and everything in the record comes from public documents — the sources accompany the case.
