Drotten Church was built in the 13th century and dedicated to the Holy Trinity. It is commonly known as Drotten "- an Old Norse word for "ruler" and "God".
The upper floor of the tower was probably fitted out as a chapel with a quint looking down into the body of the church. The chancel is decorated with dogtooth carvings and an Anglo-Norman zigzag pattern to be found nowhere else in Gotland. The church was abandoned at theReformation in the 16th century.
