LUND MUNICIPALITY


'Lund Municipality' (''Lunds kommun'') is a municipality in Skåne County, southern Sweden. Its seat is located in the city of Lund.
As most municipalities in Sweden, the territory of Lund Municipality consists of a lot of former local government units, united in a series of amalgamations. The number of original entities (as of 1863) is 22. At the time of the nation-wide municipal reform of 1952 the number had been reduced to six. In 1967 the rural municipality ''Torn'' (itself created in 1952 was added to Lund. The ''City of Lund'' was made a unitary municipality in 1971 and amalgamated with ''Dalby'', ''Genarp'', ''Södra Sandby'' and ''Veberöd'' in 1974 completing the process.
Dalby Söderskog, one of Sweden's national parks, is located within the municipality between the Dalby and Lund.
