Trondheim – the Viking capital with a thriving restaurant scene.
Trondheim was founded by Viking King Olav Tryggvason in 997 A.D. and is now Norway’s third-largest city, featuring a mix of historic buildings and a lively student population.
You’ll have three hours to explore Trondheim and its various highlights, either on your own or by asking Lumina about one of the optional excursions.
Highlights include:
- Nidaros Cathedral, nicknamed ‘Norway’s Notre Dame’ for its Gothic architectural style and considered the most sacred building in all of Norway.
- The Archbishop’s Palace, where Norway’s crown jewels are on display.
- The old city bridge Gamle Bybro over the Nid River, marking the entrance to the old Hanseatic district of Bakklandet.
- Bakklandet’s colorful wooden wharves on stilts by the river’s edge, now housing a variety of restaurants.
- Kristiansten Fort, offering beautiful panoramic views of the city and fjord.
