Activities for children

Pirbadet – a place for the whole family

If you like swimming, we recommend Pirbadet. As Norway’s largest indoor swimming pool, Pirbadet offers something for most requirements: from children’s pools and sports pools, to wellness pools and health baths. A climbing wall, diving tower and separate wellness department can also be found here. The aquatic complex is located on the edge towards the Trondheimsfjord in Brattøra and has a great view of the fjord. Some people refer to the facility as a "swimming cathedral".
