Discover with us the most amazing things to do in Lund & Top Lund Attractions.
Often referred to as the oldest city in modern-day Sweden, Lund has a history spanning more than a thousand years. It is in the southernmost part of the country and is only an hour's drive from Denmark's capital, Copenhagen. Walking around you will come across many historical buildings from different periods, such as the Krognoshuset, the oldest preserved secular building in Lund. It was built around 1300.
In the city centre, it is impossible to miss Lund Cathedral, one of the oldest stone buildings still in use in Sweden. It was built circa 1090-1145 and is often referred to as the most powerful representative of Romanesque architecture in the Nordic countries. Lund Cathedral has six church organs, one of which is the largest in Sweden. Do not miss their famous colorful 14th-century astronomical clock with figures of the Three Kings which emerge twice daily at noon at 3 pm on weekdays and 1 pm at 3 pm on Sundays.
The city is anchored by one of Scandinavia's oldest and largest institutions for education and research. Lund University was established in 1666 and until around 1800 the entire institution was contained in Kungshuset which in translation means King's House. Nearby is the University's impressive new main building built in the 19th century.
When visiting the city be sure to visit the local parks full of splendid flowers and beautiful fountains. In the very centre, on more than 8 hectares, is the University Botanical Garden founded in 1690. It is open daily to the public without charge. Here you can discover more than 7000 species of plants. The area is complemented by greenhouses representing nine different climate zones.
