Beautiful Environment. Attached park is beautifully decorated. There is a golf course beside along with training ground. A beautiful tree lines is there which feels like forest. And in the middle there is a lake. Overall a great place for passing an afternoon or have some food with family. Also there is an ice cream stand for summer.

What a nice place for a cycling trip. A beautiful, romantic place, friendly staff who sold us an içe cream although they were actually closed already, somewhere to play for the kids. Awesome!

Very calm and peaceful place. I went for a morning walk and enjoyed the ambiance with birds chirping and sound of the water channel along with scenic beauty of nature.

I love castles and this is so unique. I really appreciate the mirroring on the water. You will take some unique pictures and save some awesome memories. You have water all around the castle and in front of the main entrance there is a beautiful river... Like a dream.

Not bad

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.
