När is a settlement on the Swedish island of Gotland, with 413 inhabitants in 2014. Formerly a socken, on 1 January 2016, it was reconstituted into the administrative area När District.
Gotland is Sweden’s largest island. The province includes the islands of Fårö and Gotska Sandön to the north, as well as the Karlsö Islands (Lilla and Stora) to the west. The island of Gotland and the other areas of the province of Gotland make up less than one percent of Sweden’s total land area.
The island’s main sources of income are agriculture along with food processing, tourism, information technology services, design, and some heavy industry such as concrete production from locally mined limestone. From a military viewpoint, it occupies a strategic location in the Baltic sea.
