Endre 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 Endre District, established on 1 January 2016.[4]

Geography

Endre is situated in the central part of Gotland, just east of Visby.[5] The medieval Endre Church is located in the socken.[6] As of 2019, Endre Church belongs to Endre parish in Romaklosters pastorat.[7][8]

The Ölbäck (litt. "Beer stream") nature reserve is in Endre. The 99 ha (240 acres) reserve was designated a Natura 2000 area in 2004. It is named after the now razed Ölbäck Inn, a tavern located about 2.8 km (1.7 mi) from Visby, where peasants and traders used to stop on their way from market. In the north part of the reserve is a stone cross, erected to commemorate the place where a priest, Mr Jörgen, is said to have been killed by an eagle as he was riding home to Endre in 1336.[9]
