The Finnish Heritage Agency's description

Kallelan kylä kuuluu Kalannin vanhan ydinalueen rautakaudelta asti asuttuihin suuriin, monitaloisiin kyliin. Kylässä on säilynyt perinteinen 1800-luvun talonpoikaisrakennusten muodostama raittinäkymä.

Kallela kuuluu Sirppujoen muinaislahden rautakaudella asutettuun alueeseen. Mäen syrjään rakentuneelta kylätontilta on isojaon jälkeen siirtynyt pois Hellän kantatalo. Kylästä tunnetaan lukuisia esihistoriallisen ajan kiinteitä muinaisjäännöksiä, joista merkittävimpiä ovat satoja vuosia käytössä olleet rautakautiset kalmistot kuten Kalmumäki ja Hiidenvainio. Kylämiljööseen liittyy lisäksi kallioon hakattuja uhrikuoppia, kiviaitoja ja 1920-luvulla perustettu saha. Kylän rakennuksista suuri osa on rakennettu 1900-luvun alkupuolelle mennessä.

Kallelan asutuksen varhaisvaihe syntyi viimeistään 400-luvun lopulla Sirppujoen muinaislahden alueelle. Sirppujoki muodostui maankohoamisen seurauksena merenlahdesta 700-luvun lopulla ja vesijättömaat kuivuivat viljelykseen sopiviksi. Kallelan kylä mainittiin vuoden 1540 maakirjassa, jolloin kylässä oli 16 taloa. Taloista siirtyi 1751 kymmenen Männäisten ruukin omistajan hallintaan, joka halusi turvata hiilensaannin ruukin tarpeisiin. Isojako Kallelassa toimitettiin 1783.

Kallela village is one of the large, multi-farm villages settled since the Iron Age in the old core area of Kalanti. The village has preserved a traditional street view formed by 19th-century peasant buildings.

Kallela belongs to the area settled in the Iron Age on the ancient bay of the Sirppujoki river. After the isojako, the Hellä kantatalo moved away from the village site, which had been built on the side of a hill. The village has numerous immovable prehistoric monuments, the most significant of which are the Iron Age burial grounds that were in use for hundreds of years, such as Kalmumäki and Hiidenvainio. The village environment also includes sacrificial pits hewn into rock, stone fences and a sawmill established in the 1920s. A large part of the village's buildings were built by the first half of the 20th century.

The early settlement of Kallela arose at the latest at the end of the 5th century, in the area of the ancient bay of Sirppujoki. Sirppujoki formed from a sea bay as a result of land uplift at the end of the 7th century, and the land exposed by the receding water dried out and became suitable for cultivation. The village of Kallela was mentioned in the land register of 1540, when the village had 16 farms. In 1751, ten of the farms passed to the control of the owner of the Männäinen ironworks, who wanted to secure a supply of charcoal for the needs of the ironworks. Isojako was carried out at Kallela in 1783.
