history

As early as 1913, the building materials for a small hut were deposited on a yoke between the Birkkarspitze and the Ödkarspitze. Due to the First World War , however, the hut could not be built until autumn 1919. The inauguration, originally planned for All Saints' Day in 1919, had to be postponed to spring 1920 due to heavy snowfall.

In the original hut, the lounge was separated from the entrance door by a small vestibule and double wooden cladding was attached, which should ensure relatively high temperatures even in windy weather. The hut also had padded sleeping boards and blankets.

In 2001 the desolate hut was completely renovated. The new hut was also built using solid wood.
