'''Tronjheim''' is a huge city-mountain located in the Beor Mountains in the south of [[Alagaeësia]], a fantasy land created by author Christopher Paolini. It is the largest dwarf city and is the central hide-out of the [[Varden]], a group of rebels set on bringing down the evil King [[Galbatorix]] and his ruthless Empire.

Tronjheim is built in the center of the crater of a large volcano called [[Farthen Dûr]]. It is not only the Varden's main hide-out, but it is also the capital of the dwarves' realm, being the home of King [[Hrothgar]], the 42nd dwarven king. The city was attacked in the book  when an army of Urgals, controlled by the shade, Durza, delivered a fierce onslaught on the Varden and the dwarves. Later on, in the book Eldest, the Varden left Tronjheim for the country Surda.

Tronjheim is thousands of feet tall, and is finely decorated with jewels and treasures carved by dwarven ansestors. In the main vestibule, in the very center of the city, there stands a great star-sapphire, carved in the likeness of a rose. Above it is a Dragon-hold where the Riders' Dragons are kept when they stayed in Tronjheim. 

Some predictions say that Tronjheim will be destroyed in Paolini's final book, but most believe these to be false and untrue.
