Lund

Lund domkyrkan2007 - Lund Gothic Church

Lund, is a university city in Scania the southern part of Sweden. Lund is one of the oldest cities in Sweden and has also played an important part in Denmark|Danish history. It has a population of about 90,000 people, and is only a few minutes away from the larger cities Malmö and Copenhagen. The University of Lund is second oldest and one of the largest in all of Sweden. The city also has many high-tech companies.

An introduction to Lund

Unlike most Swedish cities Lund has preserved its medieval non-regular street pattern. Even though it is very charming it also makes it rather difficult to navigate through the city. Unlike many other cities Lund also lacks major natural boundaries like rivers to navigate by. One of the few boundaries to orient by is the railway which runs in a north-south direction west of the city. The cathedral can also be used as a landmark in order to find your way through Lund.

The first major settlement in the area was a Vikings and the Old Norse|Viking-era village known as Uppåkra, 4 kilometers south of present day Lund. This area was supposedly a cultural and religious centre with a pagan temple. Unlike other comparable sites, like Old Uppsala and Hedeby, it is not mentioned in written sources.

Around 990 Uppåkra is abandoned and Lund is established. The founding of Lund is often considered to be an important step in the founding of a unified Danish state. It soon became a Christian centre and in 1103 the Archdiocese of Lund became its own ecclesiastical province, including all of the Scandinavian countries. At the same time Lund Gothic Church was built; according to local legend by "the giant Finn". Malmö was founded as a port city for the Archbishop of Lund, but came to eclipse its mother city as a commercial centre during the 15th century.

In 1658 Scania and Lund was conquered by Sweden. As a step in the "Swedification" of Scania the University of Lund was founded in 1666. Although it is the second oldest university in present day Sweden, it was the fifth Swedish university. (Universities were founded in Uppsala 1477, Turku 1632, Åbo 1640 and in 1648 Vorpommern with the already existing University of Greifswald was incorporated into Sweden.) In an attempt to re-conquer the Scanian provinces Denmark launched the Scanian war against Sweden in 1675. In December 1676 Sweden won a decisive victory at the Battle of Lund - one of the bloodiest in Nordic history - and Scania stayed Swedish.

The Student Nations|Ever since its founding the students of Lund University have organized themselves by geographical origin into Nations].

Anyone who has a valid student ID can buy a guest card. They cost 60 kr for a duration of 7 days, and can be purchased at any nation during their office hours. It doesn't matter where you buy your guest card, as a guest card bought at any nation is valid at every nation.

Nature: Very Low
Risks of natural disasters are virtually nonexistent }} Lund is an extremely safe town by international standards and there is no need to avoid certain areas. Even late-night walks through the darkest and most desolate back streets are relatively safe and most local residents walk home at night without any second thought.

On weekend nights, you may encounter rowdy groups of drunk people (mostly students). However and they are seldom violent to third persons unless you engage them.

Other than rampant bicycle theft, crime is virtually non-existent.

The only violence you are likely to encounter is from night club/student nation bouncers, which are notoriously rough.
