In 1905, a large grave was discovered outside the old town of Visby, believed to be the site of Gotlanders' last stand against the invaders. The mass grave, containing bodies in armor, provides a rare and valuable glimpse into medieval warfare and the lives of those who fought. The Visby Collection of armor is highlighted, showcasing a range of armor worn in battle during the 1300s. The study of skeletons reveals evidence of trauma and injuries sustained in the medieval battle, with a focus on wounds to the lower legs. Ongoing osteological work aims to reconstruct the lives of individuals buried in the mass grave, providing insights into their height, stature, and how they lived and died.
