A Sensational History of Lund

Stories of murder, Machiavellian politics and eccentric mathematicians abound in this very special and sensational episode of the Lund University International Podcast! Local historian and ghost tour guide Jacques Schultze and host Elliott Gunnell discuss the odd - and occasionally bloody - history of one of Sweden's oldest universities. Together they delve into the murder at the Locus Peccatorum - or 'House of Sin', how the bloodiest battle in Scandinavian history impacted the University's early years, and the remarkable life and personality of Carl Johan Hill, the University's first dedicated professor of mathematics.
