Norway's more than 1,000 year-old-city and historical capital, Trondheim, was a beehive of activity in medieval times. Recent archeological research in the city's popular public forest, "Bymarka", has uncovered more than 500 charcoal pits, tell-tale signs of substantial medieval metal working activity.
