The history of Nidaros Cathedral - step by step
Medieval cathedrals were the largest construction projects of their day, and building them took many years. Generations of craftsmen and artisans spent their whole lives working on the Cathedral without ever seeing it completed. For more than 450 years work was going on somewhere on the Cathedral. Here you can trace the more than 900 years of the Cathedral's history.
