Gotland County

The county of the Baltic Sea's largest island, where the medieval town of Visby and limestone coastline invite you to linger.

Gotland County consists of the island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea and surrounding islands such as Fårö, and Gotland is Sweden's largest island. The capital, Visby, preserves intact medieval city walls, church ruins and lanes from the Hanseatic League era, and is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The island is dotted with limestone sea stacks called "raukar," village churches and beaches. Summers are sunny and dry, making it a favorite holiday spot for Swedes, and Medieval Week in August is the liveliest time. The best season is Jun–Aug. You can take a ferry from Nynäshamn or Oskarshamn, or fly to Visby Airport.
