Gotland is Sweden's sun island in the Baltic Sea and a jewel of medieval history that captivates German tourists with its unique blend of UNESCO World Heritage, endless sandy beaches, and a vibrant summer culture. The largest island in Sweden is located about 90 kilometers off the east coast and surprises with a climate that is milder and sunnier than on the mainland – Gotland has the most sunshine hours in all of Sweden and is affectionately referred to as the Swedish Riviera.

The heart of Gotland is Visby, one of the best-preserved medieval Hanseatic towns in Europe and a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1995. The nearly completely preserved city wall with its 44 towers encloses a labyrinth of cobblestone streets, climbing roses, church ruins, and merchant houses from the 13th century. In August, Visby transforms during Medieval Week into a time capsule: thousands of visitors in medieval costumes fill the streets, market stalls offer crafts, and knight tournaments take place against the picturesque backdrop of the ruins.

Away from Visby, Gotland offers a surprisingly diverse landscape: The Raukar, towering limestone columns that rise like sculptures from the sea, are a geological wonder and the island's landmark. The beaches on the west coast – Tofta, Gnisvärd, and Visby Strand – invite swimming in the Baltic Sea, which reaches pleasant temperatures of 18-22°C in summer. In the south of the island lies Fårö, the favorite island of Swedish film director Ingmar Bergman, with wind-swept heathlands and dramatic Raukar formations.

For German tourists, Gotland is accessible by ferry from Nynäshamn (south of Stockholm) or Oskarshamn in 3-4 hours, making the journey an experience. The island can be excellently explored by bicycle – the flat terrain and well-developed bike paths make Gotland a paradise for cycling tourists.
