The cruise port of Trondheim is located along the Trondheimsfjord at the mouth of the Nidelva River in central Norway. This charming city is known for its colorful wooden buildings, lively waterfront, and rich Viking heritage. Founded in 997 by Viking King Olav Tryggvason, Trondheim was Norway’s first capital.
At the heart of Trondheim is the magnificent Nidaros Cathedral, the largest medieval building in Scandinavia and a pilgrimage site for centuries. The cathedral’s intricate Gothic architecture and stained glass windows are a must-see. Visitors can also stroll along the cobblestone streets of Bakklandet, a quaint neighborhood filled with cafes, boutiques, and brightly painted wooden houses. The Solsiden area offers a modern vibe with trendy restaurants, shops, and views of the fjord.
