Sjit helvedes kåken – the «Shithole of a shack»
The historical «Shithole of a shack» or Sjåbakkenhuset (Sjåbakken’s house) has become the symbol of a mans battle with the state, and also Sámi rebellion agains the Norwegian state. The shack 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.
