The Covenanteers Memorial or Martyr's Monument was erected in 1706. It commemorates the roughly 18000 covenanteers who were "one way or other murdered and destroyed" for their political and religious allegiance. Many of these men were inprisoned in Greyfriars Kirkyard before being executed in the Grassmarket.
