Tilfredshet kapell, Cemetery chapel near Elgeseter, Trondheim, Norway
Tilfredshet kapell is a chapel near Elgeseter in Trondheim that serves as a funeral building for memorial ceremonies. The structure displays traditional Norwegian architecture with carved dragon head details visible in its interior decoration.
The chapel was built in 1898 by architect Nils Ryjord as a funeral structure for the Trondheim area. A crematorium was added in 1901 nearby along the Nidelva river, expanding the funeral services available on the site.
The chapel serves as a funeral venue for Nidaros Cathedral and Vår Frue parish, accommodating up to 170 people during religious ceremonies.

A separate bell tower was constructed in 1901 and stands several meters from the main building with matching decorative design elements. This arrangement creates a connected complex with two distinct structures that share the same architectural style.
