Ingmar Bergman and Fårö Island
Ingmar Bergman, the genius film maker from Sweden, lived at the tiny island Fårö on the northern edge of Gotland. Here he had his heart and home. It is a hidden gem and the locals portected his privacy carefully. It is said that you never got the right information about how to find his house near the stony beach. The island provided settings for his Fårö trilogy of Hour of the Wolf, The Passion of Anna and Skammen, as well as Persona. Andrey Tarkovsky’s The Sacrifice was also filmed on Fårö. Every 30 minutes there are ferries from Gotland to the island. The easiest way to travel is by car (to rent in Visby). In the summer you can reach Gotland by plane from Stockholm, Göteborg, Ängelholm, Sundsvall, Ronneby, Norrköping, Helsinki, Copenhagen, Oslo and Hamburg as well.
