the people of Trondheim have always seen the special quality of the wharves, so they are still proudly standing today, having not only survived the Swedes, but also plans in the 1930s to tear them down and replace them with modern blocks in the functionalist style. Saner heads prevailed so that these special buildings still grace Trondheim along the Nid river (Bakklandet and Kjøpmannsgata) and along Fjordgata and Sandgata. On the seafront, towards the canal, many of the wharves were built more recently, in the 19th and 20th centuries. Housing shops, offices, restaurants and cafes, they still hold a special charm.
