About Lund

Lund was founded by the Danish king Sweyn Forkbeard in 990 when he wanted a firmer grip of this part of the country (i.e. Denmark). To assure the importance of the city it was awarded mint rights for making coins and became the archbishopric for entire Scandinavia. For the next four hundred years Lund was one of Scandinavia’s most important cities. Construction of the present cathedral started in 1085 when also the oldest school in Scandinavia, the cathedral school was founded.

After that the province had been conquered by the Swedes in 1658, Lund University was founded in 1666, with the main purpose of making the upper classes of the province more Swedish.

Today the city of Lund, with 114,000 citizens, is very much dominated by the students. Lund University is the largest in Scandinavia with some 47000 students, approx. 600 professors and 2800 PhD students in eight faculties. It has also a number of National/Inter-national research facilities.

Sweden’s first and most successful research park, Ideon, is situated in Lund, and two major facilities for materials research are also currently under con-struction in Lund: the MAX IV Laboratory, which will be a world-leading synchrotron radiation laboratory and ESS, a European facility that will be home to the world’s most powerful neutron source. These will be of decisive importance for materials and life sciences and for industrial development.

In Lund, Medicon Village has also been established and will offer a unique environment for life sciences; integrating research, innovation and enterprise crea-tes the conditions for improved health and quality of life.

Lund the city of ideas

In Lund there is a spirit of learning more, achieving more, and making the future even brighter. We the-refore call Lund the City of Ideas. This spirit has also resulted in a vast number of inventions over the years. Did you know that the turbohaler, the dialyser, the mobile phone, the use of ultrasound in medicine, the Tetra Pak milk carton, the ink-jet printer, the barospi-rator (the first machine for artificial respiration), the fingerprint reader and many other inventions all came from Lund originally? Internationally well-known companies include Tetra Pak, Alfa Laval, Sony Mobile Communications, Gambro and Axis.
