Description

LUND C:
Lund C, or Lund Central Station, is the city's main railway station and an important hub in southern Sweden. Opened in 1856, it offers connections to various parts of the country, with regular train departures connecting travelers to nearby cities and far-flung locations.

LUND'S TRAMWAYS:
Lund's tramways were an important part of the city's public transport system from the beginning of the 20th century until their closure in 1969. The rail-bound vehicles enabled efficient travel and contributed to the city's growth by improving accessibility and communication. Nowadays, Lund has reintroduced a modern tramway as part of the city's sustainable transport system.

CLEMENS SQUARE:
Clemenstorget is a square in Lund. It is located about 100 meters northeast of Lund's central station and is one of the larger squares in the city. Clemenstorget is known for its market trade, mainly flea market stuff.

The square was laid out in the 1890s and was originally called Clementstorget (the name was changed in 1923). Several houses were built by the square, including impressive stone houses on the north and east sides of the square. On the west side is the customs house, now an auction chamber, and since 1997 a pedestrian and bicycle bridge over the railway station.

According to Lund's culture portal, the square is named after the area called Clemens rote, which in turn was named after Saint Clemens, also called Clemens Romanus, who was the third bishop of Rome in 90-97

LUND'S GOODS MAGAZINE:
Lund's warehouse, also known as "Godset", is an impressive brick building from the 19th century. It was once used as a warehouse for goods and was an important node for the city's trading activities. Today, the building is part of the cultural heritage and has undergone restoration to preserve its historical value.
