What a beautiful garden and beautiful castle, we had never been here. Nice friendly welcome and coffee with apple pie included in the entrance fee. Fantastic organization with an eye for detail. Also got an explanation about the garden and castle by a very friendly hostess. We will definitely come again next year, thank you for the wonderful day.

Great wedding location located in a beautiful garden. You can get married both inside and outside and nothing is too much for the staff!

Open to visitors twice a year. Beautiful, well-maintained garden. Many volunteers work on this all year round.

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.
