It was designed by Jan Inge Hovig, and built mainly of concrete. Its architecture symbolizes the summer light and the winter night. It is one of Tromsø's proudest achievements and can be seen from the fjord when you arrive by boat. The large 23 m high glass mosaic is the work of Victor Sparre. The ishavskatedralen is not strictly speaking a cathedral, but a parish church. Tromsø Cathedral is the only wooden cathedral in the country.

Cathédrale moderne (on aime ou pas le style !), mais qui vaut le coup d'oeil. de toute façon, pas grand chose à voir d'autre à Tromso, à part l'aquarium

Symbole architecturale de Tromso, son architecture symbolise la lumière d'été et la nuit hivernale, belle vue en arrivant par le pont, à ne pas rater.
