Lund's Lost Churches – Architectural Details and Burial Tombs

In the center here, you can see a capital in the form of a head with a face. There is a crown on the head, and the capital may represent a king or Christ. A capital was positioned at the top of a column.

Information

Permanent

The exhibition is displayed in The Deanery (no. 39 on the visitor map) on the ground floor. (Entrance next to the Herb Garden)

This is a smaller exhibition where we display architectural details from Lund's demolished medieval churches, with decorations and sculptural details.

Here we also display a debated medieval tomb monument. Earlier, the interpretation was that it was Archbishop Jacob Erlandsen's tomb, but research shows that it is doubtful.

The exhibition is shown on the ground floor of the medieval Deanery. It complements the Lapidarium – our archaeological stone garden right next to the Deanery – where we display various architectural details from Lund's medieval churches.
