history

On the initiative and under the direction of Heribertaltenbacher, the members of the Würzburg section of the German Alpine Club, founded in 1876, built a shelter and rest hut on their own property below the rock faces of the Kalbenstein. To honor the initiator, the hut was named Faltes hut. In 1994 the hut was expanded and expanded to its present size. Between 2003 and 2004, the association built a hiking trail from the Falteshütte to the Gambacher Grotto.
