Sverresborg Trondelag Folk Museum

Open air museum with more than 80 buildings from Trondheim and the Trondelag area. Beautiful surroundings, and from the ruins of King Sverre's Castle you have a wonderful view over the city and the fjord. The impressive main exhibition Livsbilder, Images of Life, in the public building reflects childhood, youth, adulthood and age in the region during the past century. The rural section shows the development in Trondelag buidling styles from the fjord to the mountains, and how people lived in the 18th and 19th centuries in the different country areas.

My friend and I had taken the Tram up to Lian and decided on a walk down to the Museum for a hot drink (toilet break) and back up again, it was just over an hour each way. We didn't visit the Museum but the staff in the cafe spoke English were very lovely. My friend and I chose a cake each wanting to split half each, he overheard this and cut them for us and put half on each plate. The cake was amazing and the cafe was very modern & comfortable. Maybe next time we will have chance to look round the museum.

What a great museum!! Authentic, fantastic models – a wonderful way of telling the story of copper mining for 300+ years. The mix of history, culture and art is really good. Fun for young and old!

I never knew what a shipping center Trondheim was for Norway and Europe. This museum captures this well. Definitely for lovers of ships and the sea.
