Tromsø domkirke
A Gothic Revival wooden cathedral completed in 1861, Norway’s only wooden cathedral, located on the city center square.
Tromsø Cathedral was completed in 1861 in the Gothic Revival style. It is Norway’s only wooden cathedral and is considered one of the northernmost Protestant cathedrals in the world. Its yellow wooden exterior and spire look striking against snowy scenes, and the interior has an altarpiece and an organ. Visitors can enter during the daytime in summer (a small fee may apply); the rest of the year, it is mainly used for services and concerts. It sits beside Storgata in the city center and is within walking distance of the harbor and Polaria.
