A medieval Christmas market always takes place on the second weekend of Advent. It was a different kind of Christmas market, definitely worth a visit.

The church ruins are located in Visby. The church and the associated monastery were founded in 1233 by the Franciscan order, founded in 1210, and completed around 1250. After its conquest by the Lübeckers in 1525, the church fell into disrepair. The monastery remained relatively modest. The number of monks probably hovered around the required number of thirteen.
