This list of churches in Nidaros is a list of the Church of Norway churches in the Diocese of Nidaros in Norway. It includes all of the parishes in Trøndelag county. The diocese is based at the Nidaros Cathedral in the city of Trondheim in Trondheim Municipality.
The list is divided into several sections, one for each deanery (prosti; headed by a provost) in the diocese. Administratively within each deanery, the churches within each municipality elects their own church council (fellesråd). Each municipality may have one or more parishes (sokn) within the municipality. Each parish elects their own councils (soknerådet). Each parish has one or more local church.[1]
The municipality of Trondheim includes several deaneries within the municipality due to its large population. The number and size of the deaneries and parishes has changed over time. In 1995, the old Sør-Fosen prosti was merged with Orkdal prosti and on the same date the old Nord-Fosen prosti was renamed simply Fosen prosti. On 1 July 2015, the Nærøy prosti, which included the municipalities of Leka, Vikna, and Nærøy, was merged with the Namdal prosti. On 1 January 2020, the old Nord-Innherad prosti and Sør-Innherad prosti were merged to form the new Stiklestad prosti.

Fosen prosti
This deanery (Norwegian: prosti) covers the Fosen peninsula in Trøndelag county. The area lies between the Norwegian Sea and Trondheim Fjord. It includes the municipalities of Osen, Åfjord, Ørland, and Indre Fosen. The deanery is divided up into 14 parishes. The deanery is headquartered at Stadsbygd Church in the village of Stadsbygd in Indre Fosen Municipality.
This deanery was established as Nordre Fosen prosti in 1917 when the historic Fosen prosti was divided into Nordre Fosen prosti in the north and Søndre Fosen prosti in the south. Originally, the Nordre Fosen prosti included the parishes of Bjørnør, Åfjord, Bjugn, and Stadsbygd while Søndre Fosen prosti included the parishes of Frøya, Hitra, Hemne, Agdenes, and Ørland. A royal resolution on 19 May 1922 changed the deanery names from "Nordre Fosen prosti" to "Nord-Fosen prosti" and "Søndre Fosen prosti" to "Sør-Fosen prosti".[2] On 1 January 1972, the parish of Ørland was transferred to this deanery from the Sør-Fosen prosti. On 1 July 1999, the old Sør-Fosen prosti was dissolved and it became part of the Orkdal prosti. On the same date, the name of this deanery was changed to simply Fosen prosti.
