Poster with a historical photograph from Trondheim. An overview image with Nidaros Cathedral visible in the background.
A picture by photographer Kristoffersson who visited the city in 1949 and we now have a charming series of pictures from Trondheim.
The Nidaros Cathedral. This magnificent cathedral, which sits at the mouth of the Nidaroselva, is not only Norway's national shrine, but also a monument of timeless beauty and history.
The Nidaros Cathedral dominates the village scene from the first glance with its impressive towers and detailed Gothic architecture. The cathedral is built over Saint Olav, Norway's patron saint, whose relics are said to be buried under the altar, and has been a pilgrimage destination for centuries. You can almost feel the Pilgrimsveiene under your feet as you approach.
Although the cathedral was begun in the 12th century, it is as if the stones still whisper stories about Vikings, kings and saints. The original building has undergone many changes, renovations and additions over the years, not least after the fire in 1531 that almost destroyed it. Every single stone and every single ornament tells a story about the passage of time, from the heyday of the Middle Ages to today's delicate restorations.
