DIscover Lund

Kulturen

One of the world’s first open-air museums, Kulturen spans two blocks in the heart of Lund. Step inside and experience life as it was – from the Middle Ages to the 1930s. You can also choose from 20 exhibitions, ranging from folk art to modern design, medieval history to contemporary culture, and local heritage to global influences. Suitable for both adults and children.

Lund Cathedral

Nearly 1,000 years old and visited by over 70,000 people annually, Lund Cathedral holds many fascinating stories and secrets. The iconic twin towers are the first thing you’ll notice as you approach Lund. Inside, look for the giant Finn in the crypt. According to legend, Finn built the church but, enraged over not being paid, wanted to destroy it. He was tricked, shrunk, and turned to stone, where he still grips the pillar today. Another highlight is the astronomical clock, dating back to 1425, which displays the zodiac signs and moon phases and chimes twice daily.

Livets Museum

What happens in the body when we breathe? Is the skin an organ? How does ultrasound work? Livets Museum explores the history of medicine and the human body, combining modern technology with historical artifacts to explain health, illness, and medical advancements.
