Nidelva is a river in Trondheim Municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. The name of the 30-kilometre (19 mi) long river translates to "the River Nid" since the suffix elva or elven is the Norwegian word for "river".[1][2]

This article is about the river that runs through Trondheim. For the river in Agder and Vestfold og Telemark, see Nidelva (Agder).

Location


The Nidelva starts at the Hyttfossen waterfall which rises from Bjørsjøen, a small lake located just below Selbusjøen, the largest lake in the southern part of Trøndelag County. The Nidelva runs north through Klæbu, then to Tiller, and then through the city of Trondheim before reaching Trondheimsfjord by the island of Brattøra near Trondheim Central Station. The Nidelva is at its deepest at the Trongfossen, a deep ravine in the village of Klæbu. There are six hydro-electric power stations along the river. The Nidelva forms the last part of the Nea-Nidelvvassdraget watershed. The Nea River is a tributary which empties into Selbusjøen, which in turn flows into the Nidelva.[2][3]

The popular Norwegian waltz, Nidelven Stille og Vakker du er ("Nidelven quiet and beautiful you are"), was written by composer Oskar Hoddø (1916–1943). According to tradition, Hoddø wrote the waltz about the Nidelva River one night in late April 1940 while he was standing at Gamle Bybro in Trondheim.[4]

[de] Nidelva (Trøndelag)

Die Nidelva (auch Nidar oder Nidelv) ist ein ca. 30 km langer Fluss im Fylke Trøndelag in Norwegen. Seinen Ursprung hat der Fluss im See Selbusjøen in Brøttem in der Kommune Trondheim. Von dort aus verläuft er nordwärts an dem Stadtteil Tiller vorbei zu den Leirfällen. An dieser Stelle speist er zwei Wasserkraftwerke. Im Unterlauf passiert er stark mäandrierend den Ort Stavne und das Zentrum von Trondheim. Am Rande der Stadt mündet er bei Brattøra in den Trondheimsfjord. An seiner Mündung waren bis in die 1980er Jahre mehrere Werften und Schiffbaubetriebe angesiedelt. Heute befindet sich hier neben einer Marina auch das Quartier Nedre Elvehavn, ein Stadtteil von Trondheim.

[it] Nidelva

Nidelva (noto anche come Nidelven) è un fiume che scorre nella regione di Trøndelag, in Norvegia. "Elv" in norvegese significa fiume e, quindi, una buona traduzione del nome è "fiume Nid". La Nidelva nasce dal Selbusjøen (il lago più grande del Sør-Trøndelag), nella sua parte più ad ovest (presso Brøttem), lungo il suo cammino passa attraverso Tiller per concludere il suo percorso nella città di Trondheim dove sfocia nel Trondheimsfjord. Ci sono sei centrali idroelettriche lungo il fiume. L'affluente che raggiunge la Nidelva presso Selbusjøen è chiamato Nea.
