After Sweden won Scania from Denmark in the 1658 Treaty of Roskilde, the school was set up in 1666 on the region of the old studium generale nearby Lund Cathedral.

History

Medieval beginning stages 

The city of Lund has a long history as a center for learning and was the pastoral center and seat of the clerical manager of Denmark. A congregation building school (the Katedralskolan) for the planning of service was set up in 1085 and is today Scandinavia's most prepared school. 

A studium generale (a medieval school guideline) was built up in 1425, and in 1438 preparing was started by the Franciscan solicitation for a baccalaureus degree. 

17th - 19th several years 

After the Treaty of Roskilde in 1658, the Scanian lands went under the responsibility for Swedish Crown, which built up the University in 1666 as a strategy for making Scania Swedish by teaching educators in Swedish, and to socially fuse the Scania range with Sweden. The school was named Academia Carolina after Charles X Gustav of Sweden until the late nineteenth century, when Lund University transformed into the no matter how you look at it division. It was the fifth school under the Swedish ruler, after Uppsala University (1477), the University of Tartu (1632, now in Estonia), the Academy of Åbo (1640, now in Finland), and the University of Greifswald (set up 1456; Swedish 1648–1815, now in Germany). 

The school was at its building up permitted four assets: law, philosophical, drug and rationale. They were the establishments, and for more than 200 years this system was in reality. Towards the end of the seventeenth century, the amount of understudies floated around 100. Some striking instructors in the great 'ol days were Samuel Pufendorf, a juridical understudy of history; and Canutus Hahn and Kristian Papke in rationale. 

The Scanian War in 1676 incited a nearby down, which continued going until 1682. The school was re-opened, as it were, a direct result of regional followers, however the school was not to welcome a high status until well into the nineteenth century. Tending to rooms were few, and locations were held in the Lund Cathedral and its bordering place of petition. The educators were missed the mark on. 

In 1713, Charles XII of Sweden entered Lund. He stayed in Lund for quite a while, amidst his warlike tries. Lund and the school pulled in a stopgap thought support. The most noticeable educator in the midst of this time was Andreas Rydelius. 

Peace was finally restored with the death of Charles XII in 1718, and in the midst of the fundamental segment of the eighteenth century the school was permitted included resources. The amount of understudies was in a matter of seconds well around 500. Despite not being keeping pace with Uppsala University, it had still manufactured a solid reputation and made sense of how to attract prominent instructors. 

Around 1760 the school reputation dropped as the amount of understudies fell underneath 200, most of whom hailed from around the region. Regardless, by 1780 its reputation was for the most part restored, and continued climbing through the 1820s. This was by and large inferable from predominant and achieved speakers particularly in philology; the recognizable educator Esaias Tegnér was a particularly unmistakable character with no matter how you look at it power. He, in this way, pulled in others towards Lund. One of these was the energetic religious understudy C. G. Brunius, who focused on old tongues under Tegnér and were later to twist up instructor of Greek. With time he was to commit himself to structures and he updated a couple of Lund's structures, and moreover sacred spots of the region. 

An understudy called Elsa Collin was the key woman in the whole of Sweden to share in a spex. 

20th century - present 

In the mid twentieth century, the school had an understudy people as meager as one thousand, containing, all things considered, of high society understudies planning to wind up basic laborers, legitimate counselors and experts. In the coming decades it started to wind up basically, until it got the chance to be one of the country's greatest. In 1964 the humanistic systems were part from the Faculty of Humanities. Lund Institute of Technology was set up in 1961 however was met with Lund University eight years sometime later. 

Of late, Lund University has been greatly surely understood among possibility to Swedish propelled training associations, both comprehensively and all around. For studies starting in fall 2012, Lund got 11,160 remote master's applications from 152 countries, which was around 33% of each and every overall application to Swedish universities. 

Women at the school 

The fundamental woman to consider in Lund was Hildegard Björck (spring of 1880) who had as of now inspected in Uppsala and had there been the essential Swedish woman ever to get an academic degree. Her residency in Lund was however astoundingly short and the remedial understudy Hedda Andersson who entered the school later in 1880 (two years before the accompanying woman to do all things considered) is by and large said as the primary woman at Lund University. Hilma Borelius was the foremost woman who finished a doctorate in Lund, in 1910. The fundamental woman to be named to an instructor's seat was the history master Birgitta Odén (1965). In 1992 Boel Flodgren, Professor of Business Law, was assigned clergyman magnificus (or, totally, rectrix magnifica) of Lund University. In that limit, she was the essential woman to be the pioneer of an European school.
