Throndhjem og Omegn.

Haakon V 1299, Karl Knutesøn 1449, Christian I 1450
og Hans 1483. Siden 1814 ere ire Kroninger foretagne
i Throndhjems Domkirke, nemlig Carl XIV Johans
1818, Carl XV’s og Dronning Louisas 1860, og vor
nuværende Konges og hans Dronnings i 1873. I vor
Tid, da Sandsen atter er vakt for dette ædle fra
Fædrene arvede Bygværk, er man begyndt at restaurere
Kirken saavidt som de af Staten og af Private ydede
Midler ville tillade.

125. Choret i Throndhjem* Domkirke (se ovenfor.)

Under de langvarige Thronstridigheder efter Sigurd
Jorsalafarers Død var Nidaros og Thrøndelagen i det
Hele oftere Scenen for voldsomme Partikampe. Sverrer
fik Kongenavn paa Ørething 1177, men maatte næsten
hele sin Regjeringstid kjæmpe med de forskjellige
Partier, som optraadte mod ham, for hvilke Kampe
Nidaros ofte var Skuepladsen. Heklungerne (eller
Erling Skakkes og Kong Magnus’s Parti) overvandt han
paa Kalveskindet 1179, hvor Erling faldt, og Aaret
efter paa Ilevolden. I denne Tid forstærkede han
Stadens Fæstningsværker med en Træborg paa det
føromtalte Eid og en Fæstning, Sverresborg eller Zion.
paa Stenbjerget. Af nye Partier, som Sverrer fik mod
sig, indtog Kuvlungerne endog to Gange (1186, 1188)
Nidaros. Baglerne kom 1197 til Nidaros, indtoge Byen
og brændte Kongens Langskibe. Det næste Aar
gjen-toge de sine Angreb to Gange, og i 1199 gjorde de,
anførte af Biskop Nikolaus, et heftigt Angreb paa flere
Kanter af Byen, men bleve tilbagedrevne. Inge
Baard-sen maatte ogsaa føre haarde Kampe mod Baglerne,
der indtoge og plyndrede Staden og dræbte en Mængde

importance to the whole of Norway, but particularly
to Nidaros and Christ Church, viz. the establishment
of an archbishoprick in 1151. The residence chosen
was naturally Nidaros, with its proud cathedral and
the bones of the national saint. Such an occasion
required, of course, that the Church of King Olaf
should be restored on a scale of unrivalled magnificence;
but not till the appointment of the third Archbishop,
Eystein Erlandssön (1161—1188), was the work begun
in earnest. Eystein built a cross-nave, or a projection
on each side of the lofty tower, and the isolated edifice,
called the chapter where he was himself interred 1188.
In the time of Eystein, Haakon Herdebreds body was
probably conveyed to Christ Church. Since that time
no Norwegian King is believed to have been buried
here. Twenty years after Eystein’s death, further
building-extensions were commenced, and continued
till about the year 1240. The whole of Christ Church
— as erected by Olaf Kyrre — east of the tower,
would appear to have been rebuilt; the space within
being heigthened, and roofed in with slabs of stone,
the English pointed style being substituted for the
round-arched style. The fourth or latest period in the
erection of this cathedral, dates from 1248, continuing
nearly to the close of the century. The extensive
western wing, and perhaps the heightening of the
largest tower, were undertaken at this time. In the year
1300, the building had reached its highest stage of
development. The pecuniary resources necessary for
the erection of so vast a structure, and the immense
number of costly objects accumulated therein, consisted
