Nordreisa (Norwegian), Ráisa (Northern Sami, pronounced [ˈraːjːsa]), or Raisi (Kven)[5][6][7] is a municipality in Troms county, Norway. The administrative centre of the municipality is the village of Storslett. Other villages include Oksfjordhamn, Sørkjosen, and Rotsund.

The municipality consists of the Reisadalen valley, with the river Reisaelva and deep pine forests, surrounded by mountains and high plateaus. Most people live in Storslett, where the river meets the Reisafjorden. Sørkjosen, just northwest of Storslett, is the location of Sørkjosen Airport with flights to Tromsø and several destinations in Finnmark. The European route E6 runs through the northern part of the municipality.

The 3,438-square-kilometre (1,327 sq mi) municipality is the 9th largest by area out of the 357 municipalities in Norway. Nordreisa is the 187th most populous municipality in Norway with a population of 4,794. The municipality's population density is 1.4 inhabitants per square kilometre (3.6/sq mi) and its population has decreased by 1.2% over the previous 10-year period.[8][9]

General information

[edit]

The municipality of Nordreisa was established on 1 January 1886 when Skjervøy Municipality was divided in two. The southern part of Skjervøy (population: 1,057) was separated to form the new municipality. On 1 January 1890, the Trætten and Loppevolden farms (population: 32) were transferred to Nordreisa from Skjervøy. The parts of Skjervøy lying on the mainland (population: 1,556) were transferred from Skjervøy to Nordreisa on 1 January 1972. On 1 January 1982, the southern part of the island of Uløya (population: 128) was transferred from Skjervøy to Nordreisa.[10]

On 1 January 2020, the municipality became part of the newly formed Troms og Finnmark county. Previously, it had been part of the old Troms county.[11] On 1 January 2024, the Troms og Finnmark county was divided and the municipality once again became part of Troms county.[12]

Name

[edit]

The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the local Reisafjorden (Old Norse: Reisa). The fjord was named after the river Reisaelva which flows into the fjord. The river name is derived from the verb rísa which means "to raise" (referring to flooding). The prefix nord (meaning "northern") was added to the name to distinguish the municipality from the nearby Sørreisa Municipality to the south.[13] Historically, the name of the municipality was spelled Nordreisen. On 6 January 1908, a royal resolution changed the spelling of the name of the municipality to Nordreisa.[14] In 2017, the municipality adopted co-equal, trilingual names for the municipality: Nordreisa (Norwegian), Ráisa (Northern Sami), and Raisi (Kven), and the government of Norway approved these in 2018.[15] The spelling of the Sami and Kven language names change depending on how they are used. In Sami, it is called Ráisa when it is spelled alone, but it is Ráissa suohkan when using the Sami language equivalent to "Nordreisa Municipality". In Kven, it is called Raisi when it is spelled alone, but it is Raisin komuuni when using the Kven language equivalent to "Nordreisa Municipality".[5][16]

Coat of arms

[edit]

The coat of arms was granted on 21 December 1984. The official blazon is "Vert, two salmon haurient argent addorsed" (Norwegian: I grønt to adosserte sølv lakser). This means the arms have a green field (background) and the charge is two salmon. The salmon have a tincture of argent which means they are commonly colored white, but if it is made out of metal, then silver is used. The salmon was chosen to be on the arms because the local Reisaelva river is one of Norway's best salmon fishing rivers. The arms were designed by Arvid Sveen.[17][18][19]

Churches

[edit]

The Church of Norway has one parish (sokn) within Nordreisa Municipality. It is part of the Nord-Troms prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nord-Hålogaland.

History

[edit]

Most inhabitants are descendants of settlers from Finland who came over in the 18th century, escaping famine and war. Today, only a few old people can speak Finnish. Some inhabitants have Sami or Norwegian backgrounds, and today the Norwegian language is most commonly used.

Few old buildings survive in Nordreisa, as virtually everything was destroyed in early 1945 by retreating German troops. The two major attractions are the old trading post at Havnnes, with picturesque old houses that escaped the war damages, and the waterfall of Mollisfossen, which is 269 metres (883 ft) high. The upper, or southernmost, areas of the municipality are covered by the Reisa National Park with unique forest and high plateau vegetation.

Government

[edit]

Nordreisa Municipality is responsible for primary education (through 10th grade), outpatient health services, senior citizen services, welfare and other social services, zoning, economic development, and municipal roads and utilities. The municipality is governed by a municipal council of directly elected representatives. The mayor is indirectly elected by a vote of the municipal council.[20] The municipality is under the jurisdiction of the Nord-Troms og Senja District Court and the Hålogaland Court of Appeal.

In the 2007 municipal elections, Nordreisa recorded the highest vote for the right-wing Progress Party in Norway at 49.3%.
