This list of churches in Trøndelag is a list of the Church of Norway churches in Trøndelag county, Norway. The churches are all part of the Diocese of Nidaros which includes the same geographical area as the county. The list is divided into several sections, one for each deanery (prosti) in the diocese. Administratively within each deanery, the churches are divided by municipalities which have their own church council (fellesråd) and then into parishes (sokn) which have their own councils (soknerådet). Each parish may have one or more congregations in it. The municipality of Trondheim includes several deaneries within the municipality due to its large population.[1]
