Konsthall, Contemporary art gallery in Lund, Sweden

Lunds konsthall is a gallery on Mårtenstorget in Lund, completed in 1957 to a design by Klas Anshelm with a closed red-brown brick facade. A dark metal roof edge runs above the brickwork, and a recessed doorway with dark metal-framed doors carries a small sign reading "KONSTHALLEN"; two white-framed windows sit to its right. Inside, high and low rooms alternate, with defined spaces for sculpture and large paintings and open balconies.

The building was constructed in 1957 after architect Klas Anshelm won a design competition. It came into being through a donation made to the city of Lund by a savings bank.

The exhibition space serves as a meeting point where visitors encounter contemporary works by Swedish and international artists displayed throughout the year. People come to experience different forms of artistic expression in galleries designed to invite engagement and reflection.

The gallery is centrally located in Lund and easy to find on a well-known square, making it accessible for most visitors. It is helpful to check the opening hours in advance, as they vary considerably from day to day.

The building's design incorporates a sophisticated approach to natural light that affects how artworks are viewed in each gallery space. As daylight shifts throughout the day, visitors experience the same exhibitions in noticeably different ways depending on when they visit.
