The old forest lodge and usage of its rooms<\/h4>\n

The room on the right, built in 1875, is the oldest part of the lodge. The house was probably built by the Forestry Authority, since it was called a forest lodge.\u00a0The lodge was originally located in Beaivv\u00e1\u0161gieddi, approximately 70 kilometers south of Karasjok, up the river K\u00e1r\u00e1\u0161johka.<\/p>\n

The building was moved from Beaivv\u00e1\u0161gieddi to its current location in 1982, and was and reassembled and restored in 1985 by\u00a0Jon Ole Andersen, Thorolf Bj\u00f8rnback, Nils N. Utsi and Avvo Turunen.<\/p>\n

Between 1909 and 1912, the Nordland Church and School Fund built a chapel in Beaivv\u00e1\u0161gieddi, intended especially for S\u00e1mi reindeer herders.<\/p>\n

Around the year 1914 the Church and School Fund built a tenant lodge with a separate room for the parson, the so called\u00a0vicar\u2019s room.<\/p>\n

In 1922 administration of the forest lodge was transferred to the Church and School Fund on the condition that it would be used as a public lodge for “the general public, transportation workers, Forestry Authority workers etc.” However, forest officials and other officials were allowed to be accommodated in the vicar\u2019s room.<\/p>\n

All the houses in Beaivv\u00e1\u0161gieddi were sold to Amund Hansen, except for the forest lodge. Amund Hansen then moved the houses to his new farm nearby, named\u00a0L\u00e1sisguoikkanj\u00e1rga\/Gr\u00f8nvold.<\/p>\n

The forest lodge was returned to the mountain lodge system on 1 January 1937. The plan was to build a new forest lodge\/guesthouse. The Church and School Fund donated 500 crowns to build a new forest lodge but the government did not allocate any money for a new lodge. Vicars s and other officials then had to stay at the lodge at Gr\u00f8nvold\u2019s farm.<\/p>\n

Between 1958 and 1959 a new forest lodge was finally built at Beaivv\u00e1\u0161gieddi. The room on the left was used as a stable for some time, because of its poor condition. Public budget records from 1936 showed that the public lodge was fragile and unsuited as housing.<\/p>\n

The new forest lodge was moved to S\u00e1miid Vuork\u00e1-D\u00e1vvirat in 1982. It was restored in 1985 and officially became part of the Open-air Museum the same year.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Buildings belonging to the Norwegian Forest Lodge Authority were marked with “Statens fjeldstue” signboards.<\/p>\n

Beaivv\u00e1\u0161gieddi forest lodge signboard was stolen from the Open-air Museum in 2013.<\/p>\n

In 2019 the forest lodge was given a new “Statens fjeldstue” signboard from Finnmark County collection. It is an original signboard belonging to another forest lodge.<\/p>\n
