Tänk om – Allhelgona som domkyrka i Lund

Wienberg, Jes LU orcid (2026) In Lund Studies in Historical Archaeology 23. p.247-252
Abstract
What if – All Saints as cathedral in Lund
Essay about a capital probably from All Saints monastery in Lund, now in the Metropolis exhibition at the Cultural Museum. It was found in 1930 in Sandgatan outside the Old Bishop's House. Imagine if it is from the monastery church of All Saints nearby, then the missing basilica could have been from the middle of the 11th century, like Dalby church, where a corresponding capital still sits on top of a column in a niche, as in Hildesheim in Germany. Then perhaps the church of All Saints functioned as a cathedral before the present cathedral in Lund.
