Pelle Skalmstad (born Magnus Vladimir Illarionovich Sladnjev) 1919-1990, was the son of a Ukrainian immigrant who married the daughter of the owner of Skalmstad farm in Øyer. In 1944, due to health related issues, Pelle was advised to spend the summer in the mountains.
Pelle was a shrewd business man and in 1946 opened the very first iteration of Pellestova, a little cafe serving coffee from chipped porcelain cups. Seeing the potential in his endeavour Pelle continued to provide drinks to thirsty skiers and hikers, and it was here the story of Pellestova, as we know it today, began.
