Grötlingbo is a populated area, a socken (not to be confused with parish), on the Swedish island of Gotland. [3] It comprises the same area as the administrative Grötlingbo District, established on 1 January 2016. [4]
The Kattlund farm in Grötlingbo is medieval. It is an open-air museum maintained by Gotland Museum where markets, jousting tournaments and private events are held. [5] [6]
Grötlingbo is situated on the southeast coast of Gotland. [7] The medieval Grötlingbo Church is located in the socken. [8] As of 2019 [update], Grötlingbo Church belongs to Havdhem parish in Sudrets pastorat, along with the churches in Havdhem, Näs, Eke, Hablingbo and Silte. [9] [10]
