ACTIVITY FACTS
SUITABLE FOR: EVERYONE | GATHER AT: THE OLD HOMESTEAD
Savor local produce or pizza in a cultural and historical environment on the banks of the Torne River.
In the timbered building dating back to 1768, which is also a museum, an open fire is crackling in winter. And the porch overlooking the calm passing of Torne River is a welcoming spot for drinks and meals in the summer.
The buildings housing the restaurant and the museum were built in the 18th century in connection to the repair of the Jukkasjärvi village church and used to be a school. Jukkasjärvi has been a settles village for over four hundred years. For a long time it was a marketplace for the Sàmi and tradesmen from all over northern Scandinavia and Russia.
Jukkasjärvi gets its name from the Sámi language, translating to “melting by the water”.
