Trondheim was founded by Olav Tryggvason in 997 and served as Norway's first capital. The city is rich in history spanning from the Viking age to modern times. Nidaros Cathedral is the largest medieval cathedral in Scandinavia and a national pilgrimage site. The Archbishop's Palace next door is Scandinavia's oldest secular building. The Old Town Bridge, Kristiansten Fortress and the colourful warehouses along the Nidelva river tell the story of a city that has been a centre for religion, trade and defence for over a thousand years. This walk takes you through the most important historic sites.
