Sweden: Visby

Last Wednesday I got four postcards: one from Sweden, one from Crimea, one from Austria and one from Indonesia.

The card from Sweden shows an aerial view of Visby. Visby is a city on Gotland. It was once a member of the Hanseatic League and today it is the best-preserved fortified commercial city in northern Europa. Since 1995 is the Hanseatic Town of Visby on the UNESCO World Heritage List.


Stamps:
Woodland Creatures (from set of three) (issued 23-08-2018)
Queen Silvia (issued 17-08-2000)
Scandinavian Mythology (from set of two) (issued 27-03-2008)


Thank You very much Doris!
