A medieval Christmas market always takes place on the second weekend of Advent. It was a different kind of Christmas market, definitely worth a visit.

The church ruins are located in Visby. The church and the associated monastery were founded in 1233 by the Franciscan order, founded in 1210, and completed around 1250. After its conquest by the Lübeckers in 1525, the church fell into disrepair. The monastery remained relatively modest. The number of monks probably hovered around the required number of thirteen.

The complex received the name Dalmanstornet in 1784, when the tower was converted into a granary on the orders of the local lieutenant governor Dalman.

The city wall, 3.6 km long, is almost completely preserved. Thanks to renovations in the 19th century, it is now one of the best and most completely preserved city fortifications in Europe. The wall was built from the mid-13th century onwards to protect the medieval trading town. The wall was initially 6 meters high and had no additional towers. Later, the wall was combined with 44 additional defensive towers and raised to a height of up to 11 to 12 meters. The wall is made of light limestone. In 1995, UNESCO even declared it a World Heritage Site in Sweden. If you've seen the opening credits of Pippi Longstocking, you've probably seen part of Visby's city wall. In addition, three parallel ditches were dug and a surrounding rampart was built.

Superb view of the cliffs. It's bearable here.

The city wall encloses Visby's old town for approximately 3.4–3.6 km and was considered one of the most important fortifications in Northern Europe during the Middle Ages. The complex has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1995. It represents one of the best-preserved examples of a Hanseatic city wall.
