The hut was built from 1929 to 1930 by the Silesian Tourist Commission as a hostel and called the Silesian Hostel or Silesian House. After the German occupation of Poland, the hut was used by the occupying army as a border station. After the Second World War, the PTTK took over the hut, which has been used for tourism again since the 1960s. It has been rebuilt and modernized several times. In the neighboring building there is an exhibition of the Pieninen Museum department.
