A description in (a few) words and (many) pictures

 

Sunday, June 3, 2007: Sunday = Sun day and church day. We are visiting the churches from Hablingbo and Lye with labyrinths on the walls, the labyrinth on the cemetery in Fröjel, the Labyrinth in Majbacken, and a new one on the beach of  Folhammar.
Gotland has 92 churches, all built between 1100 and 1350. After that no more for 600 years till 1960 at Slite. All are oriented East, and mostly surrounded by the cemetery.
