About The museum
The main exhibit - De čalbmi ii olat guhkibuidda
On 6th of February 2024, we finally opened the new exhibition De čalbmi ii olat guhkibuidda. It has reused some parts from the previous exhibition called Mii, and also carries elements from our Sea Sami culture, with the Bååstede objects as the icing on the cake. Those objects are central in the exhibition. Part of the documentation work has consisted of documentation and contextualisation of the Bååstede objects, and extracts are included in the exhibition’s texts. Through the cultural-historical objects, we can follow the traces of Sami settlements in the Nord-Troms region, and show that this is also present in the times we live in now.

A shithole of a shack
This historic house is known as both Sjåbakkenhuset (Sjåbakken’s house) and Sjit helvedes kåken (can be translated to a shithole of a shack) and has these two names for good reasons.
A man by the name Anton Sjåbakken lived in this house after coming back home after the 2nd World War. His original home, like the other houses in the Manndalen, had been burnt down by the Germans during the 2nd World War, in 1944.
