About Trondheim

Trondheim is where the fusion of history, arts, technology and green initiatives ignite a culture of innovation and rich tradition. Trondheim stands out with its progressive nature and vibrant city life, while still embodying its small-town heart. It’s Norway’s third largest city, with just over 200 000 inhabitants.

Did you know Trondheim was once the Viking capital of Norway?

But even before the Pilgrims and the Viking Age, people were drawn to the region because of the seafood-rich fjords and vast mountains filled with wildlife and some of the most fertile soil in the country.
