Lundagård (park)

Lundagård was originally the name of the archbishop's fortress built in the early 12th century just north of Lund Cathedral.

The park known today was designed in 1745 by the Royal architect Carl Hårleman and originally included a botanical garden.

[1] Kungshuset, built in 1584 as a residence by the Danish king, later became the first main building of Lund University.

[1] Other buildings in Lundagård are the AF Borgen, the Lund University Historical Museum and Palaestra et Odeum.

[2] Tegnérsplatsen is located between the Historical Museum and the AF Borgen and contains a statue of Esaias Tegnér.
