Trondheim Kunstmuseum
Trondheim kunstmuseum
A city art museum beside the cathedral, with Norwegian paintings from the 19th and 20th centuries and a dedicated room for Edvard Munch.
Trondheim Art Museum lies on the north side of the cathedral and grew out of the Trondheim Art Association, founded in 1845. Its collection spans Norwegian painting and sculpture from the national romanticism of the 19th century to modern and contemporary works. It includes several Edvard Munch prints and oil paintings, as well as works by painters from central Norway. Beyond the permanent displays, there are special exhibitions of contemporary art. It's a medium-sized museum that takes about an hour to visit and can be seen together with the Nordenfjeldske Museum of Decorative Arts. It is closed on Mondays.
