We know that many of our followers like the old pictures from Lund, they
are even more lovely in color, don´t you agree? This is how it could
have looked if there had been colored photos at that time.
This
is a photo of the Church street around 1900, toward south. The
Cathedral to the left, and the famous café Lundagård to the right.
This
photo should be taken 1899, towards the old still existing building
Liberiet. Today, the white houses are obscured by Domkyrkoforum (the
cathedral forum house).
This
picture is taken at the Church street, almost at the same place as the
previous one, but towards north. It is taken in the early 1900, but it
almost looks the same as nowadays, despite the horse manure in the
street.
This
photo is taken in the early 1900, probably from the roof of the
building Hypoteket. The shrubs in Lundagård is bigger today, but
otherwise it look like today.
This
picture is taken from the roof of the academic unions house in
Lundagård. the house you can see in the left front was called "Kuggis"
and was demolished 1897, so the photo must be taken before that. the
large white house in the middle is the quit new University main
building.
This
photo is taken when the students courting the University principal
1904, a still ongoing tradition the first of May every year.
