Where to stay in Lund
The practical side of choosing where to sleep.
Lund holds more visitor draws than most Kristiansand districts, set close to the water at the Fiskebrygga quay and the Aquarama bathing and sport complex. Beds turn up here. Some travellers base themselves near the quay to be a short walk from the central harbour, while others reach Lund easily from the inner city of Kristiansand.
The district suits those who want a footing in eastern Kristiansand beside Aquarama and Lund kirke, near the neighbouring districts of Eg and Kongsgård within Kristiansand kommune.

About Lund
What are the main landmarks in Lund?
Lund packs an unusual run of landmarks into one Kristiansand district. The Fiskebrygga quay leads. Its restored wharf sits beside the Aquarama bathing and sport complex, while inland stand the parish churches of Lund kirke and Sankt Ansgar kirke, with the venerable Oddernes kirke close at hand.
Sport fills the rest, across Odderneshallen, Odderøyhallen and Starthallen. That spread of water, worship and sport gives eastern Kristiansand a density of attractions few districts can match.
What is the history of Lund?
Lund grew from the parish ground east of the old core of Kristiansand. Faith marked it early. The medieval Oddernes kirke served these farms long before Lund kirke and Sankt Ansgar kirke rose to meet a growing population, and in the modern era the waterside filled with the Fiskebrygga quay, the Aquarama complex and the sport halls of Odderneshallen and Starthallen.
That expansion tied Lund to the neighbouring districts of Eg and Kongsgård within Kristiansand kommune. The quarter settled as the eastern flank of Kristiansand in southern Norway.
Where is Lund?
Lund lies on the eastern side of Kristiansand in southern Norway, its quay at Fiskebrygga and the Aquarama complex set near the water just out from the centre, with Eg adjoining to the north.
