Tjelvar’s Grave
Visit a Bronze Age stone ship associated with Gotland’s legendary first settler. It is a small archaeological stop near Boge, reached by a rough approach rather than a formal museum entrance.
The ship-shaped arrangement introduces a period largely missing from the medieval church collection. Read its stones as a prehistoric burial monument, while keeping the story of Tjelvar separate as legend. The setting encourages a short, attentive visit; the nearby fortifications are additional exploration and are not included in this stop’s duration.
