Hell (Urban East Norwegian: [ˈhɛlː], Trøndersk: [ˈheʎ]) is a village in Stjørdal Municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. It lies at the foot of the valley of Stjørdalen, where the Stjørdalselva empties into the Trondheim Fjord, about 3 kilometres (2 mi) south of the town of Stjørdalshalsen. The 1.26-square-kilometre (310-acre) village had a population of 1,921 in 2023, with a density of 1,525 inhabitants per square kilometre (3,950/sq mi).
Hell is a post town with two post codes: 7517 for delivery route addresses and 7570 for post-office boxes. Hell currently has a grocery store, gas station, a fast food shop, and a retirement home. Until late 1995, the E6 highway bisected the village before proceeding across the bridge of Hell to Sandfærhus (the site of Trondheim Airport). The new highway (completed in 1995) goes around the village.
