Lonely Planet review for Kulturen

Kulturen, opened in 1892, is a huge open-air museum filling two whole blocks. Its 30-odd buildings include everything from the meanest birch-bark hovel to grand 17th-century houses. Permanent displays encompass Lund in the Middle Ages, vintage toys, ceramics, silver and glass (among many others); ask about guided tours in English. The popular outdoor cafe flanks several rune stones.

    Unique and fabulous museum

    heatherhaxo recommends this,

    the LP review is a little misleading in that while the Kulturen is open-air, it is enclosed. So you can happily go on a rainy day. Kulturen is designed like a worlds-fair. As you go through the houses, you will enjoy a tour through the centuries of Southern Swedish life hundreds of years. You will learn all aspects of southern Swedish living from music to fashion to food to fishing and more. It was really fun.
