A lonely place in a druid forest. The Gallic warriors comment on the future departure of Polione, when he will succeed an even more belligerent consul. Orovezo persuades them to pretend to be reconciled with destiny, while waiting for the day of revenge ("Ah, del Tebro al giogo indegno" / "And I dread the Roman yoke ...").
Irminsul Temple. Norma hopes for a good outcome of Adalgiza's mission, but Clotilde hints to her that Polyone has no intention of giving up the young maid, and promises to kidnap her even on God's altar. Norma then utters words of revenge, strikes Irminsul's holy shield three times, and summons Gale. Warriors and priests are arriving from all sides. Norma announces that the time has come to take up arms against the Romans ("Guerra, guerra, le galliche selve" / "War, war, Gaelic forests"). The sacrificial rite must be performed and the Gauls ask the priestess who the chosen victim is. Clotilde arrives, who reports that a Roman warrior was found in a place reserved for priests, and that he thus desecrated the temple: it is Polyone, when he is brought before Norma. She orders everyone to leave, to interrogate him. When they are left alone, she leads him to swear that he will leave Adaldjiza in exchange for his life (,, In mia man, alfin tu sei ”/“ You are in my hands, finally ”). But Polione refused. Norma then threatens to order the killing of the children and burn Adaldjiza. Polyone, finally defeated, begs Norma to spare Adaldji's life and be satisfied with his death. Norma summons Gale again and orders them to prepare a bonfire for the perjured priestess who broke her vows. When the time came to say her name, to everyone's astonishment, she blamed herself. Too late Polione realized what Norma's soul was like. After asking Orovez to spare innocent children, she goes to the bonfire together with Polione ("Qual cor tradisti ... Deh! Non volerli vittime" / "What a heart you betrayed ... Don't look for them as victims"). finally defeated, he begs Norma to spare Adalji's life and be satisfied with his death.
