Kristiansund and Trondheim,

Trondheim was great. Trondheim is a popular port town in Norway. It’s a lovely place with cobblestone streets, lots of shops, a university, beautiful old town and a great cathedral. The weather was nearly perfect.

Norway thanking us for walking.
First few sights.
Wooden boat enthusiasts’ clubhouse.
The traditional folk costume is called bunad and regions in Norway have their own distinct versions,
Trondheim version.
The wooden palace in Trondheim was built in the 1770s as a private home.
They think this is the largest wooden building in northern Norway.
The Archbishop’s Palace in Trondheim, Erkebispegården, is a castle and palace in the city of Trondheim, located just south of the Nidaros Cathedral. For hundreds of years, the castle was the seat, residence and administrative center of the Archbishop of Nidaros. Next few pictures are of the castle and inside the cathedral.

Sightseeing pictures from our walk.

The bike lift. This was so cool.

  1. The castle looks more like a cathedral. Did you see any of the residence part? A wooden house is so interesting especially realizing they must have plenty fireplaces in it. I see you are eating well!
