The grand Nidaros Cathedral at the south end of town is by far the most famous landmark in Trondheim and the most visited attraction. The cathedral is 100 m (300 feet) long, 50 m (150 feet) wide with a ceiling 21 m (60 feet) high and is the biggest building from the Middle Ages in Scandinavia. Kings and queens are traditionally still crowned here, even though it’s almost 800 years since Trondheim was the capital of Norway. As opposed to many famous attractions, the cathedral is not an overrated tourist attraction and is worth every minute and krone spent.
