Guide

A tour of Visby with Pippi Longstocking

Visby is the place where Astrid Lindgren’s books about Pippi were filmed in the 1960s and 70s. This guide will take you to many locations where Tommy and Annika played with their red-haired friend, because Visby is where the screen Pippi lived, bought sweets, drank fizzy drinks and was chased by the policemen Kling and Klang. You can also pick up a free Pippi map at the Tourist Information (available in English, German and Finnish).

Klinttorget

Pippi is a child but she has a home, so she doesn’t need a children’s home. However, Miss Prysselius disagrees. Here at Klinttorget she discusses the problem animatedly with the Longstocking girl in the TV episode Pippi Is Shipwrecked.
In Pippi on the Run Pippi walks a tightrope over this square.

Övre Finngränd

For a few gold coins, you can buy enough toys for all the children in the town, and that’s what Pippi does. Afterwards, they are all sitting on the steps at Övre Finngränd playing the ocarina, when Kling and Klang come by in the TV episode Pippi Goes Shopping. In the little red house next to the steps lives Allan, who Pippi invites to the party in Pippi Has a Leaving Party.

Nygatan

On Nygatan lies the pharmacy where Pippi makes her own medicines– that cure all illnesses in the episode Pippi Goes
Shopping. Perhaps Nygatan is magical… because here comes Pippi riding a bicycle with no wheels in Pippi on
the Run.

Kyrktrappan (Cathedral steps)

Pippi gives the burglars Thunder-Karlsson and Blom a gold coin for the beautiful song as she, Tommy and Annika run down the steps of Sankta Maria Cathedral. The burglars want more and start trying to get hold of Pippi’s money in the episode Pippi Goes Up in a Balloon.

Kyrkberget

It sometimes happens that your clothes get eaten by a cow, at least if you’re Pippi on the Run. But what does it matter, when you can wear sacks instead? The three friends have a picnic on Kyrkberget while they think about how to get some money to buy new clothes.

Norra Murgatan

Captain Longstocking has returned to the little town to take his daughter to the South Seas. In the episode Pippi Has a Leaving Party Pippi rides with Tommy and Annika along Norra Murgatan. She tells them about all the exciting things she will see and do on Kurrekurredutt Isle, where Pippi is actually a real princess!

Östergravar/Brunnsporten

Pippi rides along the wall at Östergravar and in through Brunnsporten when she moves into Villa Villekulla. She also takes the route through Brunnsporten when she is on the run in the first episode of the TV series and when the seven seas call in Pippi Goes On Board.

Silverhättan och Visby ringmur

Norra muren/Silverhättan

This is another place where Pippi rides her trusty horse. In Pippi Returns to Villa Villekulla she rides down
Silverhättan.

Lekplats

S:t Nikolaigränd/S:t Nikolaigatan

Here is the playground where Miss Prysselius takes the children from the children’s home and tries to get them to play in Pippi Returns to Villa Villekulla. When Pippi is about to leave the little town, she invites all the children to the playground for her party in Pippi Has a Leaving Party.

S:t Göransporten

Thunder-Karlsson and Blom finally manage to steal Pippi’s bag of gold coins and flee the town through S:t Göransporten. But what they don’t know is that Pippi, Tommy and Annika are flying above them in a hot-air balloon in Pippi Goes Up in a Balloon.

Fiskargränd

Sour caramels, jelly raspberries and liquorice boats. Who wouldn’t want that rather than school food? This is where the candy store that Tommy and Annika pass on their way to school was located. It’s a must to stop there for a little while and fantasize about all the goodies in the episode Pippi Moves into Villa Villekulla.

Kärringen and Lågan

Go out through Skansporten and follow Visborgsgatan up to a large green area. This is where Pippi has a picnic with Tommy and Annika, next to the old mills Lågan and Kärringen in the TV episode Pippi Arranges a Trip. We think you should do the same. What could be nicer than cold pancakes and jam on a
summer’s day? Enjoy!

Kneippbyn/Villa Villekulla

Villa Villekulla is now a part of Kneippbyn amusement park’s Summerland. The house used in the films is now a playful museum, and in the summer Pippi plays are performed every
day with Miss Prysselius, Kling and Klang and
all the others.
