Visits from school and preschool
Kulturen in Lund is a living educational resource for the school. For both preschool teachers, teachers, and students, we have developed further training, special programs, and school tours on various themes. We offer school tours at Kulturen in Lund, but also at the Museum of Life and Kulturen's Östarp.
Guided tours
From September 1 to April 30, it is possible to book guided tours for school classes Tuesday to Friday 9 am–4 pm. From May 1 to August 31, school tours can be booked Monday to Friday 9 am–5 pm.
If you would like to book at another time, you can contact our booking service and ask if it is possible. Extra fees may apply.
On Your Own
If you want to visit Kulturen in Lund on your own, normal opening hours apply, but from September 1 to April 30 you can visit the park from 9 am, entrance through the entrance. Pre-register your visit with our booking service no later than the Wednesday before your visit. Read on the page Tips and Guidelines for School Visits before you book.
Teachers who have a License for Kulturen can book a class visit to all exhibitions and in the open-air museum's houses before our normal opening hours. School visits without a guide are free but must be booked through the booking no later than the Wednesday of the week before the visit.
In December, unfortunately, we do not have the opportunity to receive school groups who go on their own in the open-air museum. We have many Christmas viewings during this period and our environments in the open-air museum are therefore occupied. However, if you want to visit one of the exhibitions, this is still fine.
Packed Lunch, Toilets, and Map of Kulturen
Please bring your own packed lunch. Packed lunch can be eaten outside in our park, at the designated spot in the Allmoge hall or in the Architects' House in bad weather. Book in advance if you want to be sure to get a place in the Architects' House. The places in the Allmoge hall cannot be booked. Also at the playground, there are tables and benches. It is not allowed to barbecue due to fire risk!
Toilets are available at several locations at Kulturen in Lund. They are marked on the visitors' map, which you can find further down the page.
