Endre Church

Endre Church is one of the 92 medieval churches on the island of Gotland.

About this building

It was built in the 12th century, although most of the building was rebuilt in the 14th century. Only the lower part of the tower remains from the original church. Some of the sculptures of the 12th century church were later reused and immured in the 14th century façade.

The interior of the church featured some wall paintings made by the Passion Master. The church houses a baptismal church from the 12th century possibly made by stone sculptor Hegvald, a rood cross and altarpiece from the 14th century.

Barlingbo Church

The current church was founded in c. 1280. It has three portals, two of which are in Gothic style and one, the oldest, which is still in the Romanesque tradition. There are also Gothic windows with still extant stained glass from c. 1280 in the apse and the south façade, one of only a few instances of preserved medieval stained glass in Sweden in situ.
