Heritage day, very nice visit. Private and very well maintained castle. I recommend. Interior visit by reservation.

Charging an entry fee of €5 per person, on the weekend of heritage days, is an aberration when we know that the owners benefit from public funds to renovate their homes! These people should be reminded that public funds are not money falling from the sky but rather taxes paid by those who pay them! On top of that, 3 rooms to visit, a tower and a park with only trees, it's really making fun of the world. And the comment on the link with the Ukrainian ambassador was so poor that we felt embarrassed! At least live up to what you ask of visitors.

I love the environment and the ambience at the chateau. The park is incredible and the tour is very informative. I had the pleasure to bump into the owners at my entrance and it was an unforgettable moment to see the love and care they have for this magnificent chateau.

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.
