Almedalen (Swedish pronunciation: [ˈalmɛˈdɑːlɛn], lit. 'The Elm Valley') is a park in the Swedish city of Visby on the island of Gotland. It is well known in Sweden as the central site of the annual Almedalen Week. In medieval times the area, just outside the city walls was the city harbour. Due to the post-glacial rebound, the port over time grew too shallow and a new one had to be constructed further away from the city where the sea is deeper. In the 19th century the area went by the name Gamle Hamn (Old Port).
