Etelhem is a populated area, a socken (not to be confused with parish), on the Swedish island of Gotland.[3] It comprises the same area as the administrative Etelhem District, established on 1 January 2016.[4]
Geography
[edit | edit source]Etelhem is the name of the socken as well as the district. It is also the name of the small village surrounding the medieval Etelhem Church,[5] sometimes referred to as Etelhems kyrkby. It is situated in the central part of Gotland.[6]
As of 2019[update], Etelhem Church belongs to Garde parish, along with the churches in Garde, Alskog, Lye and Ardre.[7][8]
History
[edit | edit source]Founded and built in 1889, the pottery in Etelhem is the oldest pottery still in use on Gotland. On 31 August 2001, it was designated as a listed building.[9]
