More of Trondheim


The role of religion in Trondheim's history is significant. This is a picture of the synagogue, which was recently restored. It is across the street from the famous Nidaros Cathedral. There is great importance in the restoration of the synagogue, given Norway's occupation by the Nazis during World War II, during which this synagogue was heavily damaged. I found this synagogue to be very moving.

Comments:
what an extraordinary structure -- that wonderful blue! and that it has been restored adds fuel to my hopefulness: thank you for posting this! :)
