Nidaros Cathedral stands in Trondheim, Norway, built over the burial site of King Olav II, the monarch who brought Christianity to Norway and became its patron saint. Constructed largely between 1070 and 1300, it blends Gothic and Romanesque architecture and is built of soapstone. It is the northernmost medieval cathedral in the world, and a major reconstruction begun in 1869 was completed in 2001.
