visby

Visby is the name of the locality, or town, as well as the name of the larger area surrounding it, Visby socken.

In August the tourist season is at its peak and during one week regularly dressed tourists are outnumbered by people dressed in Medieval costumes.

There are a lot of activities like music, jesters, theatre, a medieval market, jousting tournaments and much more.

 

Visby is also the sole county seat in Sweden only accessible by boat and air.
