Lund - Clemenstorget, trams, station, and warehouse, Max Aschenbrenner (2023)LUND C: Lund C, or Lund Central Station, is the city's main railway station and an important hub in southern Sweden. Opened in 1856, it offers connections to various parts of the country, with regular train departures connecting travelers to nearby cities and far-flung locations. LUND'S TRAMWAYS: Lund's tramways were an important part of the city's public transport system from the beginning of the 20th century until their closure in 1969. The rail-bound vehicles enabled efficient travel and contributed to the city's growth by improving accessibility and communication. Nowadays, Lund has reintroduced a modern tramway as part of the city's sustainable transport system. CLEMENS SQUARE: Clemenstorget is a square in Lund. It is located about 100 meters northeast of Lund's central station and is one of the larger squares in the city. Clemenstorget is known for its market trade, mainly flea market stuff. The square was laid out in the 1890s and was originally called Clementstorget (the name was changed in 1923). Several houses were built by the square, including impressive stone houses on the north and east sides of the square. On the west side is the customs house, now an auction chamber, and since 1997 a pedestrian and bicycle bridge over the railway station. According to Lund's culture portal, the square is named after the area called Clemens rote, which in turn was named after Saint Clemens, also called Clemens Romanus, who was the third bishop of Rome in 90-97 LUND'S GOODS MAGAZINE: Lund's warehouse, also known as "Godset", is an impressive brick building from the 19th century. It was once used as a warehouse for goods and was an important node for the city's trading activities. Today, the building is part of the cultural heritage and has undergone restoration to preserve its historical value.

Premiere - New Tram Lund (2020)From inside the train, it looks very crowded at times. We want to emphasize that we tried to maintain our distance from fellow passengers, and some of the crowding is due to the camera. The camera makes certain parts of the video appear more crowded than they actually were.

Lund tram (2021)The Lund tram has been running since December 13, 2020 as the fourth Swedish tram company on its 5.5 km long route. Line 1 connects the main station with the ESS research center. The most important stop along the way is the university. Further information: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stra%C3%9Fenbahn_Lund © 2022 StrassenbahnfreakBy Strassenbahnfreak - August 2021.

Tram in Lund (2024)In this video, I ride the tram in Lund and share some information about it, as well as my thoughts on the experience. Hello and welcome to Lund. Today, we’re going to take the tram that goes here to the University Hospital, also known as ESS. Let’s get started. The tram begins to move, initially rolling slowly over cobblestone streets. When it turns to the right, the track itself takes about 15 minutes to reach ESS, which is approximately 5 kilometers away. The trams are CAF Urbos 100 models, which can also be found in Oslo as SL1. We pass Tsärgata, and the Banvallen transitions from cobblestone to grass, a change that continues for the rest of the route. The first stop is the University Hospital. The trams resemble coaches—they attempt to resemble traditional trams. A boring part of this trip was the rain, which cleared up just as the rain, wind, and wet conditions made filming difficult. I usually film every third or fourth video, especially during a tram tour, and I don’t want to get wet. When we pass the E22 highway, I try to film, but my camera acts up. I only managed to get a little of the E22, which is the route I took from Gothenburg to Malmö on the local bus. I also paid tribute to Lund's tramway from that point. The rest of the journey is quick and quite pleasant. I think the trams are a bit too quiet and modern for my taste, but they do their job. It’s actually quite lovely to glide through Lund's different districts, passing near Brunö Square. When the tram approaches more populated areas, the buildings start to end, giving way to forests and plains. Here, it feels more like Uppsala than Lund, but since both cities are roughly the same age with similar histories, it's not surprising that they share many similarities. However, Uppsala doesn't have a tramway—maybe they’re considering it, I don't know. I’ve also noticed that UL and Skånetrafiken use the same Swedish system for their buses, marked green—yay for consistency. As the tram approaches the sixth stop at ESS, it's time to prepare to get off and reflect on the trip. Yes, we took the tram to ESS. The ride took about 15 minutes and cost the same as a city ticket in Skånetrafiken. I don't remember the exact price—I'll check later. What do you think? Do you agree with Lund’s decision to build this tram? Would you like to see more tram routes expanded in Lund? Feel free to comment; I’d love to hear your thoughts on this type of construction project. In the distance, we see the Vagnhallen. If you'd like to see more, subscribe—occasional reports about smaller trams will be available. Please enjoy the video and consider supporting me on Patreon. We’ll see you next time. Bye-bye.By David Broman - November 7, 2024.

Join us on a walk along the entire tramway (2019)At the end of the summer, the tramway will be completed. Then, among other things, testing of the facility and some follow-up work remain. Join Erika Camper, project engineer at Skanska, on a walk along the entire tramway stretch and see what's happening right now!By Lunds kommun - April 12, 2019.

Now we make tourism of the tramway in Lund (2020)Now we make tourism of the tramway in Lund! Buy a 24-hour ticket, it costs the same as two single tickets, and ride the hop on hop off tram through the research city of Lund. Use our new brochure about the research city of Lund as a guide. The tramway will be operated by Skånetrafiken and the first trip will be on December 13 this year. The brochure is available here: http://bit.ly/forskarstaden A trip with the tramway in Lund goes through northeastern Lund, which could be seen as one of Europe's largest research parks. It is, of course, impossible to tell you about all the research-oriented companies that are there, but with the brochure as a guide you at least get a good experience of the research city of Lund. The brochure tells about Lund University with its Biomedical Center and Chemistry Center, and about Ideon Science Park, Medicon Village, MAX IV Laboratory and about the European Spallation Source, ESS. Welcome to Lund to experience some tram tourism! 🙂By Lunds ideella turistinformation Destination Lund - September 20, 2020.
