The history of the house

The house was built 1887 

 The house at Mellangatan was built by the Good Templars 1887. It was used as a meeting hall for the Good Templars and later the hall became a cinema theatre already in 1906. The building was a cinema mainly for thirty years.
 In 1982 the building was made into a hotel. The hotel was rented by a local football club, Visby IF-Gute and the hotel got its name, Hotell Gute. In year 1991 Anna Forslund took over the hotel and has been owned by her since then.

This photo shows when the Hotell Gute was a cinema in the beginning. The photo was taken by Willy Pettersson.
