20. June 2011: Guided tour through Trondheim

Explore the city of Trondheim from the pedestrian's perspective on a guided walking tour of Trondheim.

Your walking tour begins at the Market Square, in the middle of the town center. On the way to the Royal Residence, Stiftsgården, you will see the statue of King Olav Tryggvason, who founded the city. Stiftsgården is the largest timber Manor in Scandinavia. Thereafter you walk towards Nidaros Cathedral, the largest cathedral in Scandinavia. You’ll pass several interesting buildings; the Church of Our Lady, the remains of the St. Olavs Church, the Cathedral School, City Hall etc. Walk past the Cathedral to the Archbishop`s Palace, which also dates back to the Middle Ages. You will then stroll through the park leading to the Nidelva River, and cross over the Old City Bridge, painted in bright red, leading you to a part of the city called Bakklandet. This part of town once accommodated the poor working class, with picturesque wooden houses painted in vivid colors. Plenty small cafés and shops for those who want to spend some time there after lunch.

Passing the first bicycle-lift in the world (steep hill) we will visit the Kristiansten Fortress to have a simple lunch.
This fortress was build at the end of 17th century to protect the city from the Swedes. There is a wonderful view over the city from the fortress, and it is possible to enter the fortress for those who want to.

The tour takes about 2.5 hours, excluding lunch.
