The white building on the campus of Lund University is the main university building. It was designed by architect Helgo Zettervall and completed in 1882. The building is situated at the heart of the university campus, and houses administrative offices, classrooms, and study spaces.
Fun fact: The building's clock tower is home to Lund University's famous "Nils Holgersson Bell," which was cast in 1926. Each year, on the first of May, the bell rings out to signal the arrival of spring and the start of the traditional Swedish student festivities known as "Valborg."
