Trondheim Shopping and Trondheim Shopping Districts
(Trondheim, Sor-Trondelag, Norway, NO)



When shopping in Trondheim, do bear in mind that since Norway does not actually belong to the European Union, it is possible to claim back the VAT on most goods, when you actually leave the country itself, provided that this is within 30 days of the actual purchase. As this tax makes up approximately 20 percent of the overall purchase price, this can mean that shopping in Trondheim is far better value that it first appears.

Much of central Trondheim contains a variety of interesting speciality stores, along with some rather swanky shopping centres and modern malls. Cafes are never far away, so when your shopping bags are becoming heavy and your arms are getting tired, you can easily take a break and enjoy a well earned coffee.




Trondheim Shopping: Where to Shop - Trondheim, Norway, NO
Although Trondheim city centre is filled with shops, there are some areas of particular interest, where a high concentration of stores are to be found. The Nordre Gate literally translates as the Northern Street and makes up the city's main shopping district, being completely pedestrianised.

Other notable shopping streets in Trondheim, second to the Nordre Gate, include both the Thomas Angells Gate and also the Fjordgata, which is located on the northern side of the city centre and follows the line of the canal. Trondheim is also home to Norway's largest shopping mall, the City Syd on the Ostre Rosten, which is easily reached by bus and a good place to come on a rainy day. Other noteworthy shopping malls in the city include the rather upmarket Byhaven on the Olav Tryggvasons, the trendy and vibrant Solsiden along the Beddingen, and the Trondheim Torg on the Kongens Gate, which is conveniently located and comprises around 20 retail outlets.
