History

Arvidsjaur is a Swedish adaptation of the Ume Sámi word árviesjávrrie, derived from árvies (“generous” or “one who gives abundantly”) and jávrrie (“lake”), referring to the fishing in the nearby lake of the same name. Aruens järff by was the Swedishized name of the Sámi village where the Arvidsjaur Church was built in 1607. In the Place Name Register, the variants *Arfwids Jerfwi by (1606) and Arfwids Järfwi (1607) are documented.[3]
