Sverresborg Trøndelag Folk Museum
Sverresborg is the museum of local cultural heritage for Trøndelag. Outdoor and indoor exhibits reveal the lifestyle of the people who have lived in the region throughout history. During summer, cultural events re-enactments, actors in period and regional costumes and dresses as well as livestock from the local farms nearby bring the open-air museum section to life. If you're hungry, you can eat simple dishes and desserts at the in-house café.

Studentersamfundet
The red, roundhouse that previously housed the Trondheim Interrail centre during summer and the student society otherwise. The café Edgar serves decent food at a low cost. To get to Edgar, go in through the glass doors and up one floor. Lyche (entrance to the south) serves good food (the burgers are the most popular dish, but they also serve soups, fancier dinner options, and dessert) for just a few kroner more than a fast food chain. Just by the main entrance, Sesam makes kebabs and burgers. All southbound buses stop at Studentersamfundet. Everything is accessible by wheelchair.
Drink
Studentersamfundet
A big, red, round temple to partying. Major concerts coincide with political meetings, discussions, wine tasting, disco, football matches and... you name it. You are certain to get lost in the mazes of this wonderful house. Fairly empty in summer and on weekdays, but on term-time weekends it's good. Expect to pay around kr 30-60 in the door on weekends, more if there's a major concert going on. The place is run by approx. 1300 student volunteers who do everything from serving drinks, rigging concerts, singing in Samfundets choir, playing in Samfundets symphony orchestra and holding political debates. Befriend anyone who works there, and try to gain access to their private quarters. Most volunteers are enthusiastic people who often are easy to befriend if you, i.e. a foreigner, show interest. The private quarters are secluded areas where the volunteers hang out after work and is an even more elaborate maze with some 20 pubs that stay open all night (and day and night again.)
