Historically, Skallelv has been inhabited by the Sami and the Kven populations, and more recently by newcomers from the more southern parts of Norway and Finland. Skallelv is one of the very few villages in Finnmark county that wasn't burned to the ground by the German troops at the end of World War II. Some of the wooden buildings there date back to 1860 or older.
