If you are already pleased with overwhelming impressions of minimalistic art in swedish interior and looking for something totally different, the Farmacy Svanen in Lund would be just right for you. A piece of well preserved example of an old pharmacy is still existing on Kyrkogatan 5 in Lund. You will be very surprised to see the atmosphere of early 1900s squeezed between modern shops on this street. The pharmacy is very easy to find by their distinguished storefront with beautiful green columns and the golden swan in the middle. In 1647 The of Apotek Svanen (“Pharmacy Swan” in english) established location on the street Kyrkogatan and now classified as the oldest pharmacy in Sweden. The present interior was sculpted in by Folke Zettervall and produced by woodcarver Ola Nilsson from Kristianstad. Decorative wood patterns depict swedish pharmacological plants, widely used in the beginning of 1900s century. Very authentic design, inspired by Arts and Crafts movement, present the spirit of this time in Scandinavia. Entrance is free and mini-shopping is optional, but could be nice to support that historical heritage.

Every year more than 700,000 people visit Lund Cathedral, Swedens most visited Church. People of all ages and types are attracted here for a variety of reasons. Besides those who attend services or seek spiritual renewal, there are many tourists groups from different countries, school classes as well as visiting parties from other churches and congregations. Lund Cathedral was consecrated in 1145, and contains many well-known artifacts and features of considerable historical interest. Please don´t miss to visit the Cathedral Forum, Domkyrkoforum, a brand new modern building just south of the Cathedral. Here you can see two films about the Cathedral, drink coffee/tea, and get information.
This is a beautifully built cathedral. It is worth a visit with a day trip from Malmo. The interior of the cathedral is beautiful and you can visit the basement of the church as well. A must visit when in Lund.

The Church looks very nice from the outside. Inside, it is quite plain, despite its 700 year history, although the side altar at the back has some faded murals, which are more often seen in Italian churches. The main altar is very dramatic and it is possible to walk all the way behind it. Around the church in various paces is plenty of evidence of regular worship and an active role in its local and wider community.

A modern library with lots of natural light and surrounded by lots of nature outside the building. It’s a haven for the book lovers.
