Sverige
Fårö wears a famous crown: the genteel Hoburgsgubben, or the Hoburg gentleman. These limestone sea stacks stand gnarled and everlasting, composed of the same stone that forms the bedrock of the island itself. The oldest standing buildings on Fårö also wear lime, in the form of calcium carbonate that has been burned and slaked and made into mortar or plaster. The masons seemingly learned their craft from the rock itself.
