Trondheim

Trondheim lies along the Nidelva River near its meeting with the Trondheimsfjord, where wooded slopes and the wide fjord set the scale of central Norway’s historic city. Founded in 997, it served as Norway’s first capital during the Middle Ages and remains closely associated with St Olav. Nidaros Cathedral, built above the reputed burial place of Olav II, is Norway’s foremost medieval church and a traditional destination for pilgrims. Across the river, the colourful timber warehouses of Bakklandet and the Old Town Bridge give the centre a recognisable waterside character.
