Workation in Visby: the essentials
Inside a 3.4 km medieval wall on the west coast of Gotland lies one of the best-preserved Hanseatic towns in Scandinavia, a UNESCO site since 1995 full of church ruins, stone merchants' houses and narrow alleys. About 24,000 people live here, and Uppsala University runs a campus in town. In summer Visby is packed with Swedish holidaymakers, and Almedalen political week and Medieval Week in August book out every room. From autumn to spring the town empties, many restaurants close, and the island is left to walkers and cyclists heading for the limestone sea stacks. Visby Airport is about 4 km away, and car ferries run from Nynäshamn and Oskarshamn on the mainland.
