Trondheim stands along the banks of the river Nidelva in Sør-Trøndelag county, Norway. People have occupied the area for thousands of years, as demonstrated by the number of ancient cave dwellings and paintings that have been found. Trondheim was an important viking town, called Kaupangen King Olav Tryggvason in 997 and then Nidaros. At one point, until 1217, it played a role as the capital of Norway.

For those visiting today, highlights of Trondheim include the Gamle Bybro (Old Bridge), Nidaros Cathedral and Archbishops Palace, the most important Gothic church in Norway.
