Kungshuset, the "King's House", in Lund in Sweden, was originally residence of the bishop of Lund , erected by the Danish king Frederick II in 1578–84. After the secession of Terra Scania to Sweden in 1658, the Lund University was promptly founded in 1666 to enhance the Swedification of the Danish province. The house came to serve as the the university's main building and library. For a time the top of the tower also held an observatory.

According to an often related local legend, king Charles XII of Sweden, who resided in Lund for a time in the 1710s, should have rode up the wide wooden stairs in the tower. However, the legend is easily debunked as the tower was actually added to the building first later in the 18th century.

Kungshuset now houses the Department of Philosophy. The nearest buildings are the Lund Cathedral south of the park and the 19th century main building of the university, situated immediately to the north.
