Trondheim in the Middle Ages

Caption

Nidaros (now Trondheim) was a bustling city in the Middle Ages, characterized by trade, migration, and powerful institutions such as Nidaros Cathedral and the Archbishop’s Palace. This drawing depicts the urban landscape around the city’s main thoroughfare, Kaupmannastretet (known today as Krambugata). It is a reconstruction of how the area appeared around 1250.
