1658, when the Swedes in Throndhjem were besieged
by Norwegians, Munkholmen was fortified by the latter,

the walls of which no doubt are partly remains of the
old monastery, prisonei’s of state have been confined.
The most notable of these, Peder Griffenfeld, the
celebrated minister of Christian V, was imprisoned here
from 1680 to 1698. 2) The Helgesæter Monastery
belonged to the order of St. Augustine, and had large

for a time; in 1564 the buildings were demolished the
landed property being made over to the feudal lord.

of Baklandet, and north of Helgesæter, was a large
establishment.
In 1564, Throndhjem (the name now borne by the
city) was occupied by the Swedes for a brief space.
At the peace of Roeskilde (1628) the city was ceded
to Sweden, being however a short while after retaken

16th century the city can scarcely be said to have
shown traces of decline; but calamities of various
kinds, spread, over a series of years, began to
overtake her, giving a check to her trade and accruing
wealth. In the „Black Death" (about 1350) large
number of the inhabitants were carried off. In 1566,

600; and in the year 1600, as many as 1800 souls. No
