Unjárga (Northern Sami) or Nesseby (Norwegian)[4] (also unofficially Uuniemi in Kven and Finnish) is a municipality in Finnmark county, Norway. The administrative centre of the municipality is the village of Varangerbotn. Other villages in Nesseby include Gandvik, Karlebotn, Nesseby, and Nyelv. The European route E06 and European route E75 highways intersect at Varangerbotn in Nesseby.

The 1,437-square-kilometre (555 sq mi) municipality is the 62nd largest by area out of the 356 municipalities in Norway. Nesseby is the 342nd most populous municipality in Norway with a population of 864. The municipality's population density is 0.6 inhabitants per square kilometre (1.6/sq mi) and its population has decreased by 2% over the previous 10-year period.[5][6]

Name

The municipality (originally the parish) was originally named after the old Næsseby farm since the first Nesseby Church was built there. The first element comes from the word nes which means "headland". The last element is by which means "town". Thus it's the "town on the headland".[7] Historically, the name of the municipality was spelled Næsseby. On 3 November 1917, a royal resolution changed the spelling of the name of the municipality to Nesseby.[8]

In 1989, the municipality formally changed its name to Unjárga-Nesseby.[9] It was the second municipality in Norway to get a Sami name. This name was the old Sami name for the area. The meaning of the first element (u-) in the Sami name is unknown and the last element is njárga which means "headland". In 2005, the name was again changed, such that either Unjárga or Nesseby can be used.[10] The spelling of the Sami language name changes depending on how it is used. It is called Unjárga when it is spelled alone, but it is Unjárgga gielda when using the Sami language equivalent to "Nesseby municipality".[11]

Coat of arms

The coat of arms was granted on 27 June 1986. The official blazon is "Gules, a cloudberry plant Or couped at base" (Norwegian: I rødt en opprett gul molteplante). This means the arms have a red field (background) and the charge is a cloudberry plant (Rubus chamaemorus). The cloudberry plant has a tincture of Or which means it is commonly colored yellow, but if it is made out of metal, then gold is used. Cloudberry plants are commonly found in the municipality and the Finnmark region, growing in marshes and wet fields. The berries are collected and eaten locally as well as commercially exported to other parts of Norway. The berries are at first red, but when ripe they get a golden or orange colour, so the colour combination of yellow and red was used on the arms to represent this. The arms were designed by Arvid Sveen.[12][13][14]

History

Farming of salmon in Nesseby
View of the lake Gánddajávri

Wild reindeer used to cross the isthmus in prehistoric times until the year 1900, causing extensive human activity throughout the millennia. Therefore, the area is full of archeological finds from different periods.

The municipality of Nesseby was originally established in 1839 when the western part of the Vadsø landdistrikt was separated to form Nesseby. Initially, there were 598 residents. This was short-lived, however, since the two were merged back together in 1858. On 1 January 1864, the municipality of Nesseby was again created from the western district of Vadsø landdistrikt. The initial population (this time) was 886. The western part of Nesseby (population: 450) was separated on 1 January 1903 to form the new municipality of Polmak.[15]

On 1 January 2020, the municipality became part of the newly formed Troms og Finnmark county. Previously, it had been part of the old Finnmark county.[16] On 1 January 2024, the Troms og Finnmark county was divided and the municipality once again became part of Finnmark county.[17]

Economy

In 2013, 26% of jobs of were within the health sector and social sector; 8% were within education; there were 373 jobs in the municipality.[18] The hydroelectric power station, Gandvik kraftverk produces [around] 20.1 gigawatt-hours (72 TJ) (as of 2021).[19]

Commercial fish processing has been going on at Kløvnes since 2017.[20]

The innermost marina in the Varanger Fjord (Kløvnes havn near Nesseby Church) is operating at full capacity - 32 vessels; many of those are fishing vessels.[20]

Geography

The municipality is situated on the isthmus between the Varangerfjord and the Tana River at the entrance to the Varanger Peninsula. All the people live in small settlements along the fjord. Varangerhalvøya National Park is partially located in the park. The river Jakobselva partially forms the municipal border between Nesseby and Vadsø to the northeast.

Birdlife

The municipality of Unjárga-Nesseby is known for its interesting birding localities and is mentioned in several birding guide books. Other than the Varangerford, the main habitat is tundra with areas of bog and marsh. One species that can usually be seen on small ponds during the summer months is the red-necked phalarope.

Culture

The building that is likely the oldest, is at [Nesseby graveyard] Nesseby kirkegård; it is [a small hut made of timber] tømmerstue, and it is probably from when the first chapel was built (year 1718) at Angsnes - further inside the fjord, according to media.[44]

Sami culture

Most inhabitants are of Sami origin, and today Sami is being taught as the first language in schools. The municipality has its own Sami costume.

A survey conducted on behalf of the Sami Language Council in the year 2000 showed that 75 percent of the population are Sami speakers.[45]

The Norwegian Sami Parliament's department of culture and environment is located in Unjárga-Nesseby. The Várjjat Sámi Museum is located in the municipality. The museum is about the sea-sami culture. Unjárga-Nesseby is also the birthplace of Isak Saba the first Sami to be elected into the Norwegian Parliament.

The popular teen-age pop-band The Blacksheeps come from Nesseby.
