The Endreson Cabin, built about 1858 for the Endreson family after their 1857 emigration from Vikoy parish, Hardanger, Norway, is one of the area's oldest surviving buildings on its original site and a rare survivor from settlement before the U.S. Dakota War of 1862. Lars Endreson Rosseland, a master carpenter in Norway who had helped build Vikoy Church before immigrating, built the house, and Vikor Lutheran Church southeast of the site was named for the family's home parish; according to church history, that congregation was organized at this log house in 1871. The family claimed the property in 1857 and developed a frontier farm, but on August 21, 1862, during the U.S. Dakota War, Lars Endreson and his son Endre were killed outside the home, Ole was wounded, and daughters Guri and Brita were taken captive. Guri Endreson escaped notice by hiding with toddler Anna, returned after nightfall, found Ole alive, buried the dead with him, and then undertook a desperate journey that led them to the cabin of Oscar and Gertrude Endreson Erickson near Eagle Lake, where they found Oscar Erickson and Solomon Foot badly wounded after a gun battle. Guri washed and dressed their wounds, and she and Ole carried the men eastward by wagon until they reached Forest City, where she was reunited with her two daughters who had escaped. Guri later returned to live here, the cabin remained associated with her family through the lives of Gertrude and Oscar Erickson, and the house was later enlarged, re-exposed, restored, and preserved; it has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1986 and is also linked to Guri Endreson's grave and state monument at Vikor Lutheran Cemetery.
