history

Notice board in the entrance of the hut.

The hut was built in 1887 by the Leipzig Section of the German and Austrian Alpine Club (DuOeAV). After the First World War it was expropriated by the Italian state and given to the Bergamo section of the Club Alpino Italiano (CAI).

Together with 24 other shelters expropriated by the state, the Grasleitenhütte became the property of the Autonomous Province of Bolzano - South Tyrol in 1999; At the end of 2010, the license for their management by the CAI expired. Since 2015, the state of South Tyrol has been supported in the management of the hut (assignment to tenants, supervision of management, renovation measures) by a joint commission, in which the AVS and CAI are represented in addition to the public sector .
