Gamle Bybro (Old Town Bridge) is one of Trondheim's landmarks and a popular photo spot for tourists. The old city bridge is the perfect spot to take a photo of the colorful houses lining the banks of the Nidelva River.

Trondheim's old city bridge Gamle Bybro (also Gamle Bybrua or Bybroen) crosses the Nidelva River. According to the story, it should bring good luck to those who cross it.

Maybe …

The old bridge of the city, not far from the cathedral, replaced in 1861 an even older bridge (end of the 17th century). It offers magnificent views of the gables of the warehouses along the river; the red, yellow and brown wooden houses built on stilts in the 18th century. At the end of the bridge, Øvre Bakklandet (to the right) and Nedre Bakklandet (to the left) form a long paved narrow street lined with low wooden houses, in which today scene Cafes, restaurants and art or craft galleries can be found.
