#S:t Lars

[slavghoul]

In that recent interview with Corren, Tobias mentioned one of their backdrops was based on this building in Linköping, in case you were curious it’s the backdrop they used in 2013. The building is right opposite S:t Lars kyrka on Sankt Larsgatan, so drop by if you’re ever in the city, the area near the church is quite charming. And once you’re done church watching, there’s also a really cool pub nearby on Ågatan called The Bishops Arms which you might enjoy.

Visby - jag kommer gärna tillbaka

Idag fick vi packa ihop vårt tält och checka ut från campingen. Egentligen ska vi inte bege oss iväg idag, utan färjan går tidigt i morgon bitti. Men campingen hade ingen ledig plats sista dagen så vi tänkte att vi dygnar sista natten, alternativt sover i bilen. I skrivande stund är klockan 23.00 och jag är tveksam till det här med att dygna… Men vi får se vad som händer.

Dagen har spenderats inne i Visby, först med ett besök i den botaniska trädgården där vi mest fotade fjärilar. Det var skitvarmt idag, så det var ganska skönt att strosa runt i trädgården under dess vida tak av diverse olika trädkronor som erbjöd en välkomnande skugga.

Efter den botaniska trädgården åt vi lunch på en italiensk restaurang. Det var buffé, så vi lämnade restaurangen mycket mätta och belåtna. Det dröjde länge till nästa måltid som blev runt 21-tiden. Denna bestod av några McDonalds-burgare som vi tog med oss till ett lämpligt ställe med utsikt över staden och havet.

Mellan måltiderna har vi besökt lite olika ruiner i staden. Vi fastnade lite extra i Drottens ruin och i S:t Lars ruin.

Under tiden jag skriver detta inlägg ligger jag i en hängmatta nere vid strandpromenaden. Känns ganska soft att ligga här en sen, men varm, kväll och lyssna på vågorna skvalpande. Bakom mig kryper en igelkott omkring som har hittat en övergiven pizzaslice som någon har slängt. Den lilla gnagaren är förvånansvärt oskygg och människorna runt omkring stannar gärna och ler glatt åt den muntra lilla kotten.

Jag har varit i Visby vid två tillfällen innan, men det som slår mig nu är att det är en otroligt vacker stad. Inte nog med att staden omges av en medeltida mur, var och vartannat gata huserar en ruin från någon gammal kyrka eller kloster från 1200-talet. Gatorna kantas av både stockrosor och vanliga rosor och det doftar tjära från de gamla trähusen i staden. Att hitta någonstans att återställa koffeinbalansen i kroppen är heller inga problem - det finns gott om små, mysiga kaféer här. Och är man hungrig finns det givetvis mysiga restauranger också. En del av dem huseras i gamla ruiner också. Inte nog med att staden har ett mycket rikt kulturhistoriskt arv, den ligger ju också precis vid havet. Det är ju bara att slänga av sig kläderna och ta ett dopp efter man strosat runt en stund i denna medeltida stad.

Om några timmar går färjan till Öland. Jag kommer sakna Visby och kommer gärna tillbaka till denna svenska semesterpärla. Några timmars sömn får jag nog försöka se till att få innan färjan kastar loss. God natt!

[瑞典] 哥特蘭島 維士比

Gotland是瑞典東方的一個小島，島上最大的城市是Visby，Visby充滿了遺跡，整個城鎮被聯合國教科文組織列為世界遺產，同時也是夏季頗受歡迎的度假小鎮，在夏天的時候會有非常多瑞典人來這裡度假。從瑞典本土像是Umea, Stockholm, Malmo跟Gothenburg可以搭飛機到Visby，或者也可以從Stockholm南邊的尼奈斯港市 (Nynäshamn) 搭渡輪前往。

鵝卵石鋪成的街道兩旁佈滿了風景如畫的小屋，到處都是中世紀遺跡，還有許多咖啡館和酒吧。大廣場 (Stora Torget) 和渡船碼頭附近比較繁忙，也是遊客較多的地區。

Gotland在維京時代已經擁有活躍的對外貿易，考古研究發現Gotland島上有包括羅馬，阿拉伯和俄羅斯硬幣。Gotland在12世紀末與德國的貿易開始興起，隨後Gotland加入了以德國跟波羅的海沿岸商人所組成的漢薩同盟。聯盟以Visby為中心，這使得Visby在13世紀快速發展，來自世界各地的人們來此定居。後來Gotland的沒落是因為黑死病跟收成不佳還有航海技術的進步，出現了能夠行駛更長距離的大型船隻也造成了Visby變成可有可無的中途站。1361年，Gotland屈服於丹麥統治。然後在1525年，Visby被昔日的漢薩同盟鎮呂貝克掠奪，大部分的建築物被摧毀或廢棄。

Visby在城牆內的範圍很小，所有景點都在步行距離之內。主要街道由北向南延伸：包括歷史悠久的Strandgatan，現在有許多餐廳跟咖啡館。

St. Hansgatan 有許多教堂的遺跡，例如 S:t Hans Kyrka跟 S:t Per Kyrka

Adelsgatan 是通往主要廣場Stora Torget 的購物街  

Stora Torget廣場的北部是較安靜的住宅街道和小巷。在北城門 (Norderport)附近，可以爬上小土丘，欣賞宏偉的城牆。

Stora Torget 從中世紀開始就是Visby的中心，城牆基本上就是圍繞著這塊範圍。後來東城門 Österport 郊外有個現代化的市中心，但Stora Torget仍是遊客最喜歡的地方，廣場周圍有幾座中世紀房屋。

哥特蘭播物館也很值得參觀， 哥特蘭島本身的歷史可以追溯到史前時期，這使得 哥特蘭播物館 成為瑞典收藏最豐富的地區性博物館。哥特蘭博物館的前身是皇家釀酒廠。 哥特蘭博物館收集了很多 Rune stone- 盧恩石刻，通常是指刻有盧恩字母的石頭，盧恩字母是一種已滅絕的語言，是北歐日耳曼語族的語言，常在斯堪地那維亞半島見到。盧恩石刻是刻在巨石和基岩上的銘文。是維京時期的傳統。符文通常被用來紀念已經逝去的人，以明亮而鮮豔的顏料書寫，但多半已經蛻色而不再鮮豔。

墳墓室展示了古代到維京人的葬禮習俗。展出了幾具骨骼，包括有8,000年曆史的Stenkyrkamannen（Stenkyrka Man）。另外也有展出一些維京銀器。

聖尼古拉(St Nicolai) 廢墟是1228年在Visby建立的多米尼加修道院的遺跡，專門獻給水手和商人的守護神聖尼古拉斯。1525年呂貝克的人民襲擊Visby時，大教堂的大部分被毀。

Ruins of Helge And Helge And 是13世紀初期建立的宗教組織專門照顧窮人和病人。 Helge And  是Visby最著名的教堂遺址之一。常常有音樂會在這裡舉辦。

Botaniska Trädgården Visby 的植物園是於1856年建立的， 植物園設有香料的藥草園和漂亮的玫瑰園。園內有超過16,000種植物，其中包括北歐國家特有的許多植物和樹木，例如胡桃木，桑和銀杏。

Österport 西城門

Kajsar Tower 卡伊薩爾塔

Söderport 南城門

Visby的港口離市中心不遠，走路約20分鐘，Visby機場就比較遠一點，可以搭計程車或者Flygbussarna

Visborg

St Lars Ruin

Visby 大教堂是在1225年完成的。這是Visby唯一一座中世紀教堂仍然保存至今的

Swedes Respond To Deadly Attack With Messages Of Love And Tons Of Flowers

Thousands of people carrying flowers, flags, and messages of hope packed central Stockholm on Sunday for a powerful lovefest in response to Friday’s deadly truck attack.

Hashtags of #WeAreNotAfraid, #Unity, and #WeAreSwedes popped up on social media as participants shared photos of people paying respects to victims and tributes to first responders.

“How we deal with violence,” wrote Twitter user Lotta Hardelin, who shared a photo of a uniformed officer embraced holding flowers.

Another popular hashtag, #OpenStockholm, went further, sharing locations where those affected by the violence can receive food, shelter or other aid. The generosity came not just from local business and churches, but also from citizens who opened up their homes.

Just in case anyone needs a place to stay because of the travel chaos, we're in downtown #Stockholm and our door is open. #OpenStockholm

If you are stuck in Stockholm follow the hashtag #openstockholm for awesome people who can take you in until things are resolved.

— Marvinmega (@Marvinmega) April 7, 2017

The heartwarming gestures came two days after a man drove a truck through a crowd and crashed into a department store. The attack left four people dead ― two Swedish nationals, one Briton and one Belgian. Fifteen others were injured.

On Sunday, security fences that encircled the scene were seen adorned with flowers. Several police vehicles parked there also were covered in flowers and balloons.

”Maybe something good will come of this,” Inger Morstedt, 75, told Agence France Presse. One hope she shared is that her fellow Swedes will become “even more open and welcoming.”

Prime Minister Stefan Lofven, who laid flowers outside the department store on Saturday, acknowledged that his country is in mourning, “but we will get through this – together.”

“The aim of this kind of attack is to spread fear and hate,” Lofven said in a statement. “Over the last 24 hours, Sweden has also shown itself at its best. We have helped each other, supported each other, and opened up our homes. This shows that there is a strength in Sweden that nobody can take away from us.”
