Three ways to make Christmas and New Year's special
- Next door to the Cathedral is the over 100-year-old Hypoteket. Here you are offered Christmas as in a childhood Christmas story and a New Year's Eve celebration with 20th-century splendor.
Visit Hypoteket - Between Klostergatan and Lilla Fiskaregatan is the castle-like Grand Hotel, where you can enjoy a grandiose Christmas table and celebrate New Year under the chandeliers.
To Grand Hotel in Lund - Häckeberga Castle promises a Christmas atmosphere in a sparkling castle. The setting here is the forest, the lake and the silence of nature.
