St. Clemens Church Ruins
S:t Clemens kyrkoruin
One of the most photogenic church ruins in the old town. Roofless stone walls are surrounded by grass and gardens, creating a quiet and romantic atmosphere.
St. Clemens Church was built in the 12th and 13th centuries and is one of the more intact church ruins in Visby's old town. Its roof collapsed long ago, leaving thick stone walls, pointed arches and a nave overgrown with grass. The surroundings are gardens and old houses, creating a quiet and romantic mood. The site is often used for weddings and small concerts. In summer you can buy a ticket to enter the interior, and in other seasons you can view it from behind the fence. It lies between the cathedral and the botanical garden, and you can reach it on foot.
Opening hours
