About the church

Norrlanda kyrka is a church building on Gotland belonging to Gothem parish in the Diocese of Visby. The church is situated on a gravel plateau east of a now drained and cultivated marshland, the kyrkmyren ("the church bog"). Two medieval lychgates survive, of which the northern one has a special design, with the pointed-arched vault divided in the middle by an arcade wall with one larger and one smaller opening. South-east of the church, a medieval vaulted farm gateway (demolished in 1899) was rebuilt in 1971.
