Visby Botanical Garden
Botaniska trädgården
A century-old botanical garden inside the old town, where roses, mulberry trees and the ruins of St. Olof's Church come together. It captures the spirit of the city of roses.
The Visby Botanical Garden was founded by the Bonsai Society, established in 1855. It lies inside the city wall at the northwest corner of the old town. The garden grows roses, mulberry trees, walnut trees and many exotic plants. At its center stand the ruins of St. Olof's Church, where stone walls and flowers intertwine. It is the most iconic image of the city of roses and ruins. Roses peak from late June to July. Admission is free. You can rest on a bench, then walk along the city wall to the north gate or down to Almedalen.
