Academy of Lund, Studium generale was the first University in Denmark as well as in Scandinavia. It was in use for a duration of more than a century, from 1425 to 1536. It was closed as the Reformation reached Denmark, and as it had been located together with a Franciscan monastery.
Today's University of Lund is a far younger institution, which opened in 1666, eight years after the first Swedish conquest of Scania from Denmark (1658-1676). However did the Academy of Lund open 241 years earlier.
