  The sculptures and descriptions included in this database are mainly extracted from the book "Skulpturguiden for Trondheim" by Ann Grønli in cooperation with Grethe Britt Frederiksen. We highly recommend the reading of the book that contains more detailed descriptions of these sculptures as well as the description of more than 100 other sculptures.

  By focusing on sculptures, the database illustrates how CityExplorer can be used for other types of discovery of the city than provided by usual tourist guides. We encourage the users to create their own database for exploration of their preferred places in Trondheim or other cities (or to complement the current database) and to share them with other users.
