Heimdal is a borough in Trondheim Municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. It covers the western and southwestern parts of the municipality. The main centre of the borough is also known as Heimdal and it is located in the central part of the borough, near Heimdal Church and the Tillerbyen neighborhood.

This area around the Heimdal Rail Station was until 1964 the center of two separate local municipalities: Tiller Municipality and Leinstrand Municipality. The western part of Heimdal borough consists of the rural areas of Byneset (which was the separate Byneset Municipality prior to 1964). Tillerbyen, the eastern part of the village of Heimdal, is a recent development, planned to ease the pressure on central Trondheim from the commercial boom in the inner city.
