Arctic Cathedral Reviews

A major landmark in Tromso (the other side of the big bridge) . It costs 80NK to get in and apart from the large feature stained glass window , the rest of the building will leave you cold . The architecture is great externally, but it's featureless, dull and boring on the inside. There are toilets in the building which is a plus and the views from outside are great. Other than that it's one to miss

The Arctic Cathedral is absolutely amazing, in the looks from the outside and breathtaking on the inside. Inside the cathedral is vast, and you can see across from the entrance to the back. There is plenty of seating, both the pews and other seating near the front. Downstairs there are photos of the construction and designs of the cathedral; which can be accessed by steps or a lift. You can easily get to the cathedral by bus, car or by walking across the bridge. If you can go across the bridge, there are lots of nice views of the cathedral and Tromsø. I highly recommend it while visiting Tromsø.

The Arctic Cathedral is breathtaking, both inside and out. It is a very modern construction with clean, elegant lines. I visited as part of an excursion booked through Hurtigruten Cruises. I would recommend timing your visit to avoid bus tours.

The Arctic Cathedral in Tromsø, Norway, is a stunning masterpiece of modern architecture. Its striking triangular design and towering stained glass window create a mesmerizing sight against the Arctic sky. The interior's serene ambiance and acoustic excellence make it a must-visit for spiritual seekers and architectural enthusiasts alike.

A modern Cathedral resembling a traditional Sami tent dwelling. The Cathedral is in a prominent position at he end of a road bridge connecting to the main island where Tromso city centre is located. It takes about 20 minutes to walk to it over the bridge from the city. Inside the gaps between the concrete wall panels are connected by steel members to model stitching. It has a modern interior with large chandeliers over the central nave, and a modern stained glass window over the altar. You can have a sit down at the rear of the building before returning over the bridge, which can be quite chilly in winter and spring. Also there is a basement with toilets if you need them which are open to visitors.
