Amazing place to be with great underfloor heating, wich makes it perfect also during winter events. The owners are very friendly and close to their guests. A must when in Normandie!

We celebrated our wedding (July 2023) at Château de Tilly and welcomed 220 people. We were able to enjoy the outdoor terrace for cocktails then the orangery for the evening and brunch. Our guests (and ourselves) were transported by the magic of the place for a weekend. We appreciated the responsiveness, availability and professionalism of the team: they are experienced and supported us to enable our projects (and dreams) to come true. We appreciated the quality of the service and the rooms on site as well as the delicate attention given to the bride and groom. We highly recommend Château de Tilly.

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.
