Galgbertet, known for its still-standing medieval gallows, is a nature reserve just north of Visby on Gotland, Sweden. The area is bounded to the east by County Road 149, in the south by the town of Visby, and in the west by the cliff edge. Archaeologists found the bones of 30 people in a trench inside the stone circle of the gallows in July 2008. Galgbertet is a popular hiking area, with the Gallows ruins as one of its main attractions.
