Picture of the Day

Lund_cathedral

The western facade of Lund Cathedral this afternoon. It is the centrepiece of mediaeval Lund. I snapped the picture when I had just left the Centre for Theology and Religious Studies, which is located in the oldest part of the university, only a short walk from the cathedral. The current cathedral was built in 1145, when an earlier cathedral from 1060 burned to the ground.
