About Gotland
Gotland is a large Swedish island and province in the Baltic Sea. The biggest town, Visby, is distinguished by its cobblestone streets and well-preserved medieval city wall. Visby is also home to the grand, centuries-old St. Mary's Cathedral. Ruined medieval churches around town include St. Nicolai and St. Karin. Nearby, Gotlands Museum traces the island's natural and cultural history with art and artifacts.
