The Old Town Bridge in Trondheim, Norway spans the Nidelva River and is a popular tourist destination. The red portals and scenic views of the river and quaint, colorful houses make it a charming place to walk or stop for a coffee. The wooden bridges and shops lining both banks have made it a popular spot for shopping.
MUST SEE,
Best place for photography, the reflection of colorful buildings makes it amazing, actually it is symbol of Trondheim

Lovely place near Kings Gardens, just beyond the Cathedral. Take your lover and kiss for love on the bridge. The love locks are regularly removed due to excess weight on the old bridge.

The Old Town Bridge in Trondheim is a charming and historically significant landmark. This picturesque wooden bridge, dating back to the 17th century, spans the Nidelva River, connecting the old and new parts of the city. Its vibrant red color, quaint design, and historic ambiance make it a favorite spot for locals and tourists alike. The bridge offers a fantastic vantage point for capturing beautiful photos of the surrounding waterfront and the colorful old warehouses. It's a delightful spot to take a leisurely stroll, soak in the city's atmosphere, and appreciate the fusion of history and modern life in Trondheim.
We sat in the sunshine and ate lunch here. I highly recommend it!

The Trøndelag Folk Museum features a collection of buildings from across the Trondelag region, including remnants of King Sverre's medieval castle. The museum is located in the ruins of Sverresborg castle, and is one of Norway's most popular attractions.
An amazing folk museum. You can travel trough different periods of time between the buildings that are in a traditional Norwegian style. You will be able to learn about their lifestyle, society, religion and traditions.
Strongly recommend the guided tour (Sundays at 1pm). Our guide shared many interesting facts (with great sense of humor as well) and showed us inside building that are not usually open. Besides that, we also recommend visiting the Adolf Øien's apartment, that is open Sunday from 11-12:30. In this building there is also a “guide” who provided much information and was super friendly.
The place in general is great! In my opinion it is a must in Trondheim :)

What a lovely experience! In spite of the eclectic weather it was still incredibly enjoyable to see these buildings which lend themselves to Norwegian history.

We took a boat ride to reach from Oslo which turned out to be a pleasant journey. Beside open air museum, there were few building where all exhibits were kept for display. This part of Norway was built by Viking King Trondheim. It was very informative about how the peopled lived thosand years back. If you want to see in detail ther one should keep at least three hours aside. There was a beautiful cafe outside.
Worth visiting...

Step back in history 125 - 150 years. This museum helps to better understand how early settlers survived and traded. Two pics added are of gnome carvings on the grounds. A fair amount of walking is needed to see the entire grounds and old buildings. Some ship are grazing there. A nice gift shop with coffee, bakery goods, clean restrooms, and an indoor museum are present.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Folk Museum - the only museum we visited in Trondheim. We arrived right on time for the daily 14:30 tour in English where a guide dressed in traditional attire took us to some of the oldest sites on the property, including the 2 churches, ruins of a castle, and an old family home. He explained the history of these places and gave us glimpses into how it was in the past. After that, we had just enough time to walk through the folktale/fairytale path on the way to the animal feeding at 16:00. We saw the pigs, rabbits, chickens, and cows, and got to feed the goats ourselves. The staff were all very friendly and available to answer any questions. We spent 2.5 hours there but easily could’ve spent 3 or more hours. Make sure to bring comfortable walking shoes since it’s spread out outdoors with many different buildings to visit and learn about.

Thought the folk museum was great! Wish we’d had closer to three hours to spend there.
They offer guided tours of some of the oldest buildings, there’s a town square set up with examples of old dentist offices, apothecary, and hat shop. There was also a good exhibit on life in Trondheim over the last few hundred years organized by phase of life (childhood, teenage years, etc).

This is one of the greatest museums in Trondheim. This museum is rich of Norwegian tradition and history. They have a great guides who are passionate about their job. I learned and enjoyed a lot from this place. It is a child friendly place and highly recommended for families. They have activities for both children and adults. The museum has many buildings inside and each has its own story. You need at least 3-5 hours to enjoy the place fully.
The national museum Ringve Music Museum has a global collection of instruments, including examples from the European musical tradition and modern sound technology.
Nice viewpoint and nice park to walk around. You can meet ducks and gulls at the lake.

The most fascinating museum I have ever visited. It is absolutely worth a visit if you have the opportunity.
The staff were incredibly knowledgeable and such talented musicians in their own right. Our guide for the day was a charming young man, a classical musician and student (who did tell us his name but I unfortunately can't recall it - he had mentioned it was hard to pronounce but is all I can recall) and this excellent chap played many of the instruments for us as part of the tour. His knowledge was incredible and his ability to play beautiful classical pieces, with his eyes closed no less, on each historic instrument was incredible to watch.
The home and instruments are beautifully preserved and maintained, and clearly loved and respected by the staff.
This was an excursion booked through a cruise I took just this month and I have to say it was one of my favourites. Cruising through the Norwegian Fjords was a treat in itself, but The Ringve was an experience I will never forget.

A small yet fascinating collection of instruments, many of which are fully functional. Students act as guides and can play many of the instruments and sing! Set in an old house where music was important to the family, it is a delight to visit and learn!

Have visited here only twice: Once for a Christmas party and once (Dec 2021) for Anneke van Giersbergen's & Kari Rueslåtten's (semi-)acoustic gig.
Both visits were very positive. Don't remember too much of the first one, but the second one was golden. The venue works really well for quieter, semi-acoustic music. Great singers/musicians + good sound technician + good venue = success.
The seating plan limits the size of the audience to hundred-something, which means there's space and air to breathe.

The music museum was a surprise find on our northbound Hurtigruten trip. It is a mile and a half from the terminal and we visited on a ship's excursion. The guided museum trip takes you through the instrument collection, from a 17th century clavichord to a self-playing piano that Edvard Grieg worked with. The guide plays several of the instruments, so it is a chance to compare their sounds.

Just a short note to thank the staff at Ringve for helping me to enjoy a near-closing-time visit two weeks ago. The front desk lady who recommended the sea sound exhibition was right to do so, and the gentleman chatting while playing harpsichord and pianola for me in the musical instrument section was a complete star. Thank you, from the theorbo lover!

Korsvika is a beautiful coastal area on the outskirts of Trondheim, offering small inlets with sandy beaches and coastal rocks. It's a family-friendly spot perfect for sunbathing and picnicking by the sea, with amenities like parking, toilets, picnic tables, and fireplaces available. Visitors can enjoy activities such as swimming, hiking, fishing (though it may be challenging to find good spots), or simply unwinding with yoga or meditation while taking in great ocean views.
Its a great place for a small hike.
It is also an awesome place near to the city, at the same time away from the lights to watch the aurora if the skies are clear.

Kristiansten Fortress is a fortress that overlooks the city of Trondheim in Norway. It is known for its gruesome history, including the execution of Norwegian patriots by the Germans during World War II and the imprisonment of Nazi collaborators after World War II. The fortress also has a small museum with exhibits on the history of Trondheim.
One of must see when You are in Trondheim. Important historical place with an excellent view over the city. Pretty big parking place (1st hour with a free tkt), cafe from 10 a.m..

This is a well preserved Fortress overlooking the old town of Trondheim.
Well maintained and with lots of information boards, giving you some of the history of the place. Great views from up here on a good day.
It’s had a long history, and was used as a fort up until WW2 when Germans used it as a base, and also as a place of execution of resistance fighters.
One place that could have had more information was the keep itself. Big, beautiful white block, but not much info about it.

The heritage museum Rockheim is dedicated to popular music from Norway from the 1950s until yesterday. It has a large roof projection with cover art for Norwegian records and features interactive exhibits and recordings. It is on the quayside near Pirbadet and the fast-ferry landing stage. Rockheim is a fan favorite and visitors will enjoy learning about Norwegian popular music history through displays, videos, and recordings.
We had an amazing experience at Rockheim Museum. The variety of artists to discover is so extensive that you could easily spend a whole day exploring. The interactive nature of the museum adds another layer to the visit. Highly recommended!

Disappointing and underwhelming museum. Top floor has several interactive exhibits with no explanation of how to use or written descriptions. We were looking forward to the black metal room but it’s just a replica of Mayhem’s rehearsal room, with no information about the scene, the bands or the history of the genre. On the plus side, the view from the cafe is great and the lockers are free / easy to use. Overall, very expensive at 160nok.

One of the best museums we've ever been to. Even though is not extremely big, I have never spent more time and being so engaged in a museum with approx 10 rooms. We literally stayed two hours there. The concept is amazing, every room has a different logic and they are all very entertaining and get you involved.y favourite is the room with the alogrithm that connects artists of similar music or other similarity. I literally want my future house to have that room in it. Very nice job done with the metal rooms as well. We had an amazing time. Would recommend to anyone who has interest in music, even if you do not follow Norwegian music a lot, the conce is still very fun. And you will learn.

It is an awesome museum for music lovers. So cool to be able to walk through the 50's, 60's all the way up to 00's.
Very impressive interactive stuff like the jukebox in the 50's and the casette player in the "metal room".
Very worth while a visit, and be prepared to spend some time there, we spent 4 hours and could still be there longer if they didn't close 😅

Great museum with creative interactive approach, mostly dedicated to Norwegian popular music. The buiilding is really cool and especially the tourbus room and the cassetteplayer to bring you into the dark world of Noreegian metal are really fun!

Munkholmen is an island in the Trondheimsfjord, just outside of Trondheim. It's a former Benedictine monastery that has been used for a variety of purposes over the years, most recently as an anti-aircraft gun station during World War II. In summer you can take a shuttle boat to visit the site.
Munkholmen is a lovely picnic area in summer. I can’t say I have been out there in winter, but it makes for an interesting location to photograph in the ever changing weather of Trondheimsregionen.

Had to go for a 12 minute boat ride from the city to this island. Though there wasn’t so much to see, I liked it because it has finer sand than Korsvika beach. Nice for quick detour 😊
Grace — Google review
While the site itself is fascinating with great views, the service was overall mediocre to outright infuriating. The cafe did not offer milk with coffee, not everyone likes a bitter black cuppa. And for lunch we ordered a soup with refill, but then there was no refill available. This was substituted with a waffle, but a waffle is not soup, which is what i paid for. The tour was in Norwegian, with no English even though there were a fair amount of foreigners in the group. This would have been okay if we looked at the sites while the guide spoke, but instead he sat in a seat and then told us to go off and fund the things he spoke of 30 minutes later. But the thing that dissapointed me most was when the ferry back to the main land did not arrive at 3.15pm as scheduled, but rather 4.15pm, with no communication from anyone. We could have enjoyed the island a bit more, but instead all stood in the sun waiting anxiously while other events we paid for in the city were passing us by. I tried calling the ferry several times and messaged on FB, but never received any response.
Natalie Field — Google review
Disappointing. After taking the 10 minute ride in an air polluting old boat we arrived at the island only to find the main building locked and told we could only enter if we purchased the guided tour. We did not do this on principle. It took 5 minutes to walk around the perimeter of the island and we read the history online while waiting for the next boat back.

One of the must see attractions in Trondheim! Is it worth to go for short guided tour (50NOK), really interesting. Nice beach with some sand, is it possible to swim there where temperature is higher. Lot of people can go there with kayaks, boats or bigger boat from Trondheim (95NOK). Perfect place to go there during the week, when there is less people, you can calm down and rest well.

A really interesting site with hundreds of years of Norwegian and WWII history. It was fairly inexpensive (about $20 USD) for the boat ride to the island and the guided tour. There is a small craft/gift shop on site. There is also a small Cafe that serves food as well as alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. This site is only open for a few months in the summer so make sure you check the schedule before heading to the tour boat.

Munkholmen is a tiny island in the Trondheimsfjord, about 2 km off Trondheim city centre. During the summer the island is a popular spot for outings and has plenty of scope for bathing and sunbathing. There is also a café there and a small restaurant with outdoor seating. You can catch a boat to Munkholmen from Ravnkloa. Munkholmen has an eventful history and is now a listed monument.
The 124-meter Tyholttårnet tower is a popular spot for viewing the Northern Lights in Trondheim, Norway. The tower also has an observation deck and a rotating restaurant.
Landmarks of Trondheim. Overlooking the city. It is a good place to enjoy the sunset and the fjord. At night you can see lights of various colors on the tower. The revolving restaurant is also great with a pizza buffet at noon. Evening is the best time to visit if the weather is good

Very tasty and one of the best Indian restaurants in Norway, especially because of its ambience and detailed decor. Traditional meets modern. I loved the honoring of the Tantric Gods and Goddesses. I felt at home. In between Kali, Shiva and Durga. Not many restaurants in Scandinavia actually portrays the goddess it created a sacred atmosphere. They also honored tantric philosophy and eastern cultures with the blue/golden color on the walls.

A great place to have a relaxing dinner. The food is nice (as always in the Egon chain), the prices are usual too, however the locale itself is absolutely stunning.
Imagine sitting behind the table eating your tasty quesadillas while the floor under you together with the table and everything slowly goes 360 degrees around the tower.
You're not only getting the best view from the tower but all the views from the tower. And those are indeed magnificent - the bay, the hills and the city underneath.
Would definitely recommend, it's a must if you're in Trondheim.
However, don't go there by foot from the centre of the city as you're going to scale the steepest street I've ever seen in my life (steeper than that in San Francisco with trams). Take a bus ride.

This place is hardly a tourist attraction. It seems that they could care less about attracting tourists. Indeed there were no signs anywhere regarding the hours, or how to find the entrance, and I only learned when I got there that the times on Google were incorrect, and that in fact the last tour is at 3:00 p.m., and in this case that the last tour was in German. Hence it was impossible to actually see the inside of the palace. But through the windows, it didn't look that great. More importantly, they make no effort to provide a good experience for visitors to the city.

The Archbishop's Palace is a 13th-century stone castle with a courtyard, and contains exhibits on Norwegian Crown Regalia, military history, and the history of Nidaros Cathedral. The palace also houses the Archbishop's Palace Museum, which includes artifacts from Nidaros Cathedral.
An interesting museum built over the former Archbishop's Palace adjacent to Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim. The museum has many statues recovered from the site, and models of it's changing layout over the centuries.
Part of the museum includes the excavated remains of the Palace showing the outlines of walls and timbers used in the original construction, with many interesting finds of day to day life in the Palace.
A ticket to visit it can be bought in combination with the adjacent cathedral and Crown Jewels exhibition. There is a film showing the history of the palace running on a continuous loop.

The interior is quite modern and beautiful, but I wasn't so interested in its content. We got the combo pass for the cathedral, so it was a nice side-attraction.

Boring. Nothing but old statues with no information or stories on them. One movie that explained a lot but none of the statues which was disappointing. We bought a combined ticket to all three so we did kind of get this one free or discounted but it wasn't very interesting.

The exhibition in archbishop Museum is sub par. Lighting of is not optimal, sometimes flashing LEDs into your eyes while you observe the finds. Whoever organized the exhibition decided to put several items at floor level, together with information plaques. Every now and then you have to strike a yoga pose to read and observe something at ankle height. Please rearrange for human consumption.

Nice place to visit, the most intereating thing was an old mint. You can buy the combinate ticket to the cathedral, crown jewels and this museum.

The grounds of the palace were very beautiful, the inside of palace was interesting to visit as well, not as impressive as the Cathedral but worth the visit nonetheless!

This is an open-air museum adjacent to Nidaros Cathedral. The medieval stone walls on display stand in stark contrast to the highly decorated church next door. It is an ideal place to bring the children when they want to play knights and castles. Some paths are gravel or cobblestone and might be hard to navigate by wheelchair. There are also some sills at some of the doorways.
Pirbadet is a huge indoor waterpark in Trondheim, Norway that offers a variety of activities for all ages. There's a youth pool, sports pool, wellness pool, health baths, climbing wall, diving tower and separate spa area.
Outdoor pool is a must! It's definitely a great experience when the sun goes down and lights turn on.
Enjoy the view of the city!

It's really outdated, there is mold on a few places and cracks here and there. I feel it's more of a local place then for tourists. No private changing. Price is okay. Sauna's are really nice (but also visible old/moldy). Slides are fun however the kids and teens ignore the red/green light. One even came directly after me and landed on me..

Went to check when visiting Trondheim and actually had a great time. It was very crowded with locals is really an attraction for families. The saunas were good. Good fun specially for the ones with kids. Cool stuff.

A bit crowded on the weekends but otherwise a great place, there's a lot to do there. Heaven for kids who like to splash around.

A nice facility for both swimming and fitness. It is best to come during the morning weekdays as it will be less crowded. They offer a variety of amenities which are lovely. Improvements could be made in the showering/locker areas as well as better food options, but overall it is still worth visiting for a day pass.

Lots of different activities and pools with comfortable temperatures. Nice staff. Amazing view. But we wish the tiles were less slippery outside the cafe. And be careful using the blue tube slide. And I wish the locker key band was more comfortable around the leg.

Great fun for families, playful teens, adult swimming and recreation.
Cleanliness is unfortunately constantly low in changing areas.
Many locker’s have been out of service for over a year.
This is great environment with spectacular views of the waterfront all year round.
If you want a healthy snack or meal bring a packed lunch, there are tables and chairs free to use.
TIP: on busy weekends and holidays buy tickets with the app and avoid cues. Bring a big water proof bag to leave in designated area at poolside as lockers run out quickly. Bring your own snack.
Don’t let downsides stop you from checking this place out-it’s really good!

It's a great place for kids. I think they are accepting too much people in there at once so be there when it opens. And the food is not that good...

The swimming pool was unfortunately very dirty and expensive for what it had to offer. Parking in the underground garage costs 39 kroner per hour, which is also very expensive compared to the cheap parking in Trondheim.

the pool has many options for all ages and levels of expertise; there's shallow hot pools for kids, a shallow warm pool with some jacuzzi areas facing the fjord, and two deep pools for lap swimming. there's also a couple of slides and a sauna! be mindful however to bring your own hair dryer otherwise you can borrow one from the reception with a 100kr caution. morning coffee and tea are given for free in the pool area.

One of good place for spending your free time or your sports activity in Trondheim, just sport pool(idrettsbasseng) section should be develope.especially when lot of peoples decide dive from different side can make problem forswimmers. Steam sauna is weak and have not possible for add Ecalyptus, but other things is good and sea view also nice and unique.

Too many lockers are in bad shape, key straps or clothes hooks broken, making lockers useless. Forgotten items and trash laying in washing rooms. Most irritating thing was that there was no control on visitors behaviour. Noisy misbehaving people and under-aged in the quiet adult area. People carrying rucksacks and other dirty stuff in pool area, some had mobile phones for taking photos, who knows where. Such a shame management obviously doesn’t care. This could be a nice place but sadly is a dump. Can’t recommend to anyone.

Not the cleanest nor most modern swimming pool, but there's everything you need.
Special mention for the exterior hot bath.

Desperate needs maintenance in the locker rooms. Otherwise a nice indoor swimming pool with multiple bassins, from a kiddy pool to a wave pool and a competition bassin. However, the lockers (mens at least) are in desperate need of maintenance. A third of the lockers does not work (will not close), hooks have broken off, no way to dry hands in the toilets as the towel dispensers fell down and are now just missing... And it been like this for years and is only getting worse...

Good location, very pleasant staff that also seemed attentive inside the pool area.
Wheelchair friendly.
Sizeable wardrobes where the lavatories might need a higher cleaning frequency.
Tons of activities and relaxation options - super fun waterslides, several bubblebaths, a 25x8lane training pool, several rehab pools, climbing wall (that is in dire need of a proper cleaning of the holds - shroom game was real), diving spring boards and towers from 1 to 10 metres and more!

Fantastic indoor bath. It has lots of different pools and two great waterslides. One of the pools is a wavepool, another has a diving tower with 1, 3, 5, 7 and 10 meter options. Then you have saunas, outdoor pools, one for kidsa stille wearing dipers and Joker, a ok restaurant.
You pay for a ticket to enter, but can stay all day if you wamt. Perfect for cold or rainy days and I strongly encourage everyone to pay them a visit.
The Vitensenteret i Trondheim is a museum and science center in Trondheim, Norway that focuses on interactive exhibits and regular organized activities for kids. The museum has a planetarium and 360 cinema which are open most weekends.

This I would say must be on the 'to do' list when in Trondheim.Interesting both for kids and adults.Can't find a single thing we didn't like.It is also great that they keep it open in pandemy,that closes many attractions for kids.This way they offer a choice-to have where to go if not worried about Covid and staying home if that.Reserve at least 4 hours and even more if you want to try/read everything.Worth to follow the suggested program as well.

Took my 7 year old daughter there and we both enjoyed it, paid 100 kr for my daughter and 140kr for myself.
Easy to walk through it, full of science based games which is a smart way to teach the children about chemicals, crystals, tornedoes, human body, space, gravity and optical illusion. The PLANETARIUM was magical and is a must..i will leave it for you to discover.

Great place to take the family for a day of science. The number of displays they have managed to cram into the space is quite amazing, but that being said, I wish they got upgraded to a new museum.
The National Museum of Decorative Arts in Trondheim contains a variety of interesting art, including pieces from the modern and contemporary periods as well as collections of historical art. The museum is well-worth visiting for anyone with an interest in decorative or industrial design.
Very creative people working here. The exhibition are worth to explore. I have visited this place for over 15 years and it always deliver best exhibition. Each time am there I leave with a lot of inspiration! Visit this spot while in Trondheim!

Trondheims museum of industrial art is an interesting place to visit, especially if you find the design and evolution of everyday things fascinating. The rotating exhibitions tend to be good.

A bit old fashioned museum. The collection is surprising, Handicraft and interior.
The Crown Regalia, including the Crown of Norway and other state regalia and crown jewels, is displayed at the Archbishops Palace. The kings crown was specifically created for King Charles III John's coronation in 1818. Visitors can find the exhibition in the west wing of the palace. It's recommended to watch a film about the cathedral which provides insights into its restorations.
A must see. Includet in the combined ticket for the cathedral. Very informative and beautiful!
Dimitar Bikov — Google review
Beautiful but you need to buy separate tickets for the church, regalia and Archbishops Palace. Lots of information on the history of Norway, too.
Four stars because the guard in the room told us no photos were allowed, but when a different guard came in he said photos were fine. Don't know why.
Rui Templier — Google review
(Translated by Google) beautiful exhibition....... the history of Norway in a few pieces
I recommend the film on the cathedral which explains the restorations well and makes you want to go back (they will let you pass with your already used ticket............)
in addition the rooms are pleasant and refreshed
(Original)
belle exposition ....... l'histoire de la norvege en qq pièces
je recommande le film sur la cathedrale qui explique bien les restaurations et vous donnent envie d'y retourner (ils vous laisseront passer avec votre billet dèja utilisé............)
en plus les salles sont agréables et rafraichies
