Trondheim Norway


 Do you know him?

Trondheim, situated on the shores of the Trondheim Fjord in central Norway, is a city steeped in history. Established in the 11th century, it boasts the magnificent Gothic Nidaros Cathedral, renowned for its intricate rose window and detailed west facade. Close to the cathedral, the Archbishop’s Palace Museum showcases a wealth of archaeological finds and sculptures, including the cathedral's original gargoyles.

More gargoyles than i could count.



Of all the numerous carved statues of kings and saints on the cathedrals exterior, Peter noticed this one holding his head. I now know it is a statue of Saint Denis, the patron saint of France and bishop of Paris, who was martyred by beheading.

Peter looked forward to this traditional food and of course loved it.

Once warehouses.

Colorful historic houses built on stilts are reflected in the Nidelva River in Trondheim, Norway.



Not much of a chance for this clown to haunt us tonight. Barely any darkness way up here as we cross the Arctic Circle tonight.
