Christmas at Kulturen

Christmas Fair 27–29 November

Soon it is time for Kulturen’s annual tradition – our Christmas Fair. On Friday evening our events are aimed primarily at adults, while Saturday and Sunday are geared toward the whole family, featuring child-friendly activities.

Shop for Christmas gifts, decorations, handicrafts, and food items at the Christmas market; discover how Christmas was celebrated in the past within the museum’s historic buildings; watch a Lucia procession; and enjoy a variety of musical performances. When hunger strikes, you can choose from a selection of hot food, glögg (mulled wine), and fika (coffee and treats). On Saturday and Sunday, children can meet Santa Claus and his helpers, join in dancing around the Christmas tree, and take part in Christmas crafts.

About us

What is Kulturen?

Kulturen (The Cultural Historical Association for Southern Sweden) is a non-profit association, which, in addition to Kulturen in Lund, also manages the Museum of Life, Hökeriet and the Tegnér Museum in Lund as well as Kulturen's Östarp in Sjöbo municipality. We have large museum collections, and our archaeologists and building antiquarians work both on projects and within the museum's activities.

The main museum is Kulturen in Lund, a cultural history museum with historic houses from different eras, several exhibitions, and programs for different ages. The museum opened as early as 1892.

The White House's wrought-iron railings

In 2029, Vita huset (the White House) will mark its 100th year as the museum’s main building. We are currently renovating the structure to highlight its architecture, improve accessibility, and create a more welcoming and sustainable museum environment.

We are now restoring the silhouette of the White House—one meter at a time, centimeter by centimeter. Furthermore, the first 500 donors who contribute at least 500 SEK in a single donation will receive a brass pin depicting the White House.

Every contribution makes a difference, whether large or small!
