Very worthwile to visit. There is something for everyone, from kids to adults I really liked the boat section (see picture) and upstairs life how it was in the Bouhuslän-region. Restaurant is ok, shop very nice and very friendly staff! Admission free (can you believe that?)

We visited the children's area at Bohuslän museum which doesn't require any entrace fee. It is a beautiful space for kids of all ages, lovingly decorated in nautical style. If you are in the area I would really recommend it!

Visby Cathedral

Visby Cathedral (also known as St. Mary’s Church) is the only survived medieval church in Visby. It was originally built for German merchants and inaugurated in 1225. Around the year 1350 the church was enlarged and converted into a basilica. The two-storey magazine was also added then above the nave as a warehouse for merchants.

Following the Reformation, the church was transformed into a parish church for the town of Visby. All other churches were abandoned. Shortly after the Reformation, in 1572, Gotland was made into its own Diocese, and the church designated its cathedral.

There is not much left of the original interior. The font is made of local red marble in the 13th century. The pulpit was made in Lübeck in 1684. There are 400 graves under the church floor.
