Voted the best place to live in Sweden, with a bustling university community, beautiful historic buildings and a relaxed atmosphere, Lund is going to excite you! Less than an hour away from Copenhagen, this charming city is a well-worth visit.

Lund University is a must-see when in the city and this prestigious place of study ranks amongst the top 100 universities of the world - yes, the world! Walk around the beautiful campus that is full to the brim of stunning historic architecture and greenery. You might even be tempted to enrol! (oldest in Sweden)

Don’t miss out on Lund Cathedral, the impressive building that dominates the city skyline. It’s the greatest piece of Romanesque architecture in Scandinavia. Get lost among the cobbled streets of Lund’s historic center. Marvel at the pastel colours and relax as you take in the pretty scenes and tranquil atmosphere.

Lund has many green spaces in the city, and favourites include the Botanical Garden and Stadsparken. Enjoy over 6,000 plant species at the Botanical Garden, with different climate zones to take you all over the world. Smell the flowers and enjoy relaxing strolls while breathing in the city's clean air.

For a culture hit, why not visit Kulturen, Lund’s open-air museum. It takes up the space of a whole historic quarter between the Cathedral and the Botanical Garden so there is lots to see and learn! With around 30 exhibition rooms, you can step back in time and learn about the old way of life in Lund.

Leave Lund with a spring in your step after discovering all the city's treasures!
