    Archaeological Museum in Lund
    The historical museum of the University of Lund is located in the immediate vicinity of the medieval cathedral in the historic old town of the time-honored university town.


    The cornerstone of the museum, which today has an archaeological collection of about 10 million exhibits, was the extensive private collection of Professor Kilian Stobæus (1690 - 1742). The most interesting pieces and more or less curious items from this collection are displayed in a separate room in the museum, the Kuriosakabinettet.

    Furthermore, the museum contains finds from the Stone Age and Bronze Age. Iron Age exhibits are abundant in the Barbaricum section. There, the exciting finds from the ongoing excavations of Uppåkra - a veritable Iron Age city that existed for about 1,000 years and was abandoned only with the founding of Lund in 990.

    After extensive reconstruction work and the entry of the archaeological institute into the building built in 1845, the historical museum was opened in 1918 as one of the most modern museums of its time.
