Halfway(ish!) between the North and the South of Norway lies Trondheim, a cozy city full of friendly locals, called Trønder in Norwegian. Here, Viking history meets a young, creative vibe. The city is home to the iconic Nidaros Cathedral, a national treasure. The state-of-the art museum PoMo is one of several experiences that has put Trondheim on the cultural map.

The city can show off two Michelin-starred restaurants: Fagn, known for its inventive Nordic cuisine, and Speilsalen at the elegant listed Britannia Hotel. It’s no surprise that international culinary experts named Trøndelag the European Region of Gastronomy in 2022.
