Lund Cathedral was founded in the 11th century, but there are many indications that it is an ancient church and that the present cathedral began to be built in the early 12th century, after Lund became the seat of the archbishopric of the Nordic countries. The Cathedral was the birthplace of Lund University in 1668 and was even the main teaching and meeting hall of the university until the seat of the university received the Royal House as its first proper building. During the years 1759-1778, extensive restoration work was carried out in the cathedral. From 1845 to 1846, the crypt was extensively restored. Using a specially invented lifting tool, they succeeded in correcting the difficult settling in the walls and vaults. The medieval towers were demolished and replaced by new, sharper towers. The aim of the restoration was to give the cathedral a more coherent and idealised Romanesque style.
