Rone Church, Medieval church in Rone, Sweden

Description

Rone Church is a stone building in Gotland featuring Gothic architecture and a distinctive tower that rises prominently above the surrounding landscape. The structure combines building elements from multiple construction phases and houses historical artwork and artifacts inside.

History

The building's origins reach back to the 12th century, with the main structure taking its current form during the 13th and 14th centuries. Later modifications and additions, especially the tower, shaped the appearance you see today.

Culture

The interior walls display two separate sets of medieval murals that reflect the religious devotion and artistic skill of the community across different eras. You can observe how the painting style and religious imagery evolved as the centuries progressed.

Practical

The building can be explored by visitors interested in viewing medieval stonework and religious artwork. Plan your visit during regular opening hours and be aware that it remains an active place of worship.

Did you know?

The building preserves some of the oldest glass windows on the island, positioned in the original east-facing openings where they still cast light into the choir space. These precious windows demonstrate how glass-making craft and technique developed on the island in earlier times.
