Finding Lund Observatory Lund Observatory is located about 2 km north-east from the center of Lund at the crossing of Sölvegatan and Tornavägen. It is a red brick building next to an old water tower (Swedish "vattentornet"). The observatory is in fact located at the highest point of central Lund. The picture on this page shows the observatory building as seen from the main entrance's side. The grey block standing out is the Lundmark lecture hall. The old water tower is visible on the left. Here you can find maps of Lund and the part of the university campus where the observatory is located (look for Astronomi). What is where in Lund? Hotels, restaurants, pubs etc - this map can help you! If you arrive by train and want to have some fresh air you can take the 20min walk from the railway station shown on the map below.
