What to do and see in Lund, Skane County: The Best Historical & Heritage Tours

January 8, 2022 Janean Rudisill

Among the oldest cities in Sweden, Lund was founded in the late 10th century. The stalwart Lund Cathedral is almost as old as the settlement itself; it was built in traditional Romanesque style and contains a beautiful astronomical clock, five organs and an ancient crypt. Explore charming Jakriborg, a modern residential area that emulates a medieval town, then head to the beautiful Botanical Gardens.

I took the tour to Malmo. It was an ok tour. The guide was nice. And once across the bridge he drove us around the city for an hour before giving us time to look around ourselves. It was a nice day.
