Why – and how – was an Institute for Advanced Studies established in the building at the intersection of Biskopsgatan and Sölvegatan in Lund? Why is it called the Pufendorf Institute? What activities have been in the building before? Can you also hold your meetings here? In 2007, Professor Sture Forsén proposed the idea to establish an "Institute for Advanced Studies" at Lund University. The propo

The building that is now home to the Pufendorf IAS was originally built in 1886 to house the Department of Physics at Lund University. When the building was renovated, great importance was placed on preserving and incorporating elements from the layers of history. The original floor has been retained wherever possible, and any new flooring has been manufactured in the same way. The theatre balcony
