As a Visby local, it's fascinating how much you've learned about Visby and I'm glad you enjoyed your brief visit to our little town. :D It's also very fun to see your home through the eyes of a tourist as it's VERY easy to become blind when it comes to the beauty of your own home. (Also, I rarely visit the old part of Visby - I live outside the walls - since I am not a fan of walking on the cobble stones XD)

Thank you so much for your kind words! Visby truly is a gem, and I'm glad I could capture a bit of its charm in my visit. It's amazing how we can often overlook the beauty that's right in front of us. Your hometown's history and scenery were such a delight to explore. I totally understand about the cobblestones-they add so much character, but I can see why they might not be your favorite for everyday walking! Thanks again for sharing your perspective. 😊

Wow, 44 summers on Gotland-how wonderful! Having a summer house there must be amazing. It sounds like you have a lot of cherished memories from Visby, including your conscript back in 1986. Six more years to retirement and then you get to enjoy Gotland full-time-that's fantastic! Thank you for sharing your story!

Here you can get some more facts about Visby. Around the year 1300, Visby had 13 churches inside the ring wall. And had around 8,000 inhabitants. Stockholm at the same time had about 3,000 inhabitants. The Gotlanders had theirs Church and the Germans, Russians, etc. each had their own church.

Yes it so much fun. They even got livers. You should carry cash on you if you don't have Swish though because not everyone has a card reader

The building seen in 2.54 is not the back of the cathedral, its a thermal bath house from 1914.
