Amazing Things to Do in Visby & Top Visby Attractions

Discover with us the most amazing things to do in Visby & Top Visby Attractions.
In Gotland, on the largest island in Sweden and the Baltic Sea, you will immediately be captivated by its unique character when you visit the city. The Hanseatic city of Visby is arguably the best-preserved medieval city in Scandinavia. It is one of the main reasons why this place is so popular with tourists. Among the most notable historical remains are the long town wall that encircles the town center. Built in two stages during the 13th and 14th centuries, approximately 3.44 km of its original 3.6 km still stands. Of the 29 large and 22 smaller towers, 27 large and nine small ones remain.
If you enjoy visiting sacral buildings on your travels, be sure not to miss a visit to 13th-century Visby Saint Mary's Cathedral, the only preserved medieval church in the city. There are four hundred graves under the church floor. The successive church changes throughout the centuries led to an irregular and variegated interior.
Close to the port is Almedalen, a well-known park in Sweden, as the leading site of the annual Almedalen Week. The event takes place in week 26 and is considered the most important forum in Swedish politics.
August sees the peak of the tourist season and the annual start of the fantastic Medieval Week. From Sunday to Sunday, the place is overcrowded by people dressed in characteristic Medieval costumes. This famous festival started in 1984 and comprises a variety of events: music, jesters, theatre, a medieval market, jousting tournaments, and much more.

Hi Visby, do you still remember that battle between Danes and the fleet of Hanse in 1396 or 1398? They both wanted to eliminate Vitalian Brothers from the Baltic Sea, and 'collided' into each other. Inventions like identification systems were out of question and the 'collision' led to full size, horrible slaughter! Both off and in the town of Visby.

Me and my family visited Gotland when I was very little, I have no memory of it because I was very little back then. I hope we'll visit it again so I can see what it is like.
