Lund: E22
Lund combines medieval continuity with a modern regional role in a way that reflects its position on Skåne’s open agricultural plain. The E22 skirts the northern side of the city as part of Sweden’s south-eastern road axis, linking the Malmö–Lund area with routes towards Blekinge and Småland. Around Lund Norra, the motorway passes through a built-up corridor of businesses, housing and planted verges, illustrating the infrastructure behind one of southern Sweden’s leading university cities. Lund University, founded in 1666, is central to the city’s identity, while Lund Cathedral is a major Romanesque landmark whose oldest parts date from the 12th century. The Øresund Strait lies west of the low Scanian plain.
