Trondheim is the third largest city in Norway, located on the Trondheimsfjord on the Norwegian Sea in the center of the country. Often credited as one of Norway’s most beautiful cities, Trondheim is more than one thousand years old and continues to be an important center for museums and traditional Scandinavian architecture. The River Nidelva flows through Trondheim, crossed by numerous elegant bridges.

Two important sights to visit in Trondheim are Nidaros Cathedral, founded in 1070, and Kristiansten Fortress, located just east of the city. The aged cathedral was completely restored as of 2001 and contains a pair of impressive organs. Tourists typically visit Nidaros Cathedral via the old pilgrimage route. Located on a nearby hilltop, Kristiansten Fortress successfully repelled invasions from neighboring Sweden in the late Renaissance period. Since 1997, the fortress has been a museum and tourist destination.

Trondheim is an accessible and picturesque city with a rich history and diverse cultural attractions located on a sheltered fjord.
