SEVETTIJÄRVI
Housing of the Näätämö village is dotted along the Sevettijärvitie Road for a distance of almost 60 kilometres. The region is home to approximately 350 people. The Sevettijärvi Skolt Sámi village is located approximately 110 kilometres northeast of Inari. The village of Sevettijärvi has an Orthodox Church, Sevettijärvi Traditional House, school, small shop with postal service and bar. The majority of Skolt Sámi live in the villages of Sevettijärvi or Nellim. There are only around 600 Skolt Sámi left in Finland, the majority of which live in the Municipality of Inari.
TRADITIONAL HOUSESevettijärvi has a great resting place during times with no snow cover – the Traditional House. A Skolt Sámi cabin with outbuildings was brought into the grounds. The cabin and outbuildings beautifully depict Skolt Sámi related items, as well as information on the history of Skolt Sámi, including the relinquishing of the Pechanga region and repopulation of the Sevettijärvi region. Skolt Sámi handicrafts are also sold in the cabin. The grounds also have a traditional baking oven for use during the summertime, and staged quadrille performances. In 2007, behind the cabin, on the shores of the pond, a summerhouse was built, as well as a couple of raised pantries, and an old smoke sauna was also relocated to the area. |
