The Lamsenjochhütte , opened for the first time in 1906, is an Alpine Club hut of the Oberland section of the German Alpine Club at 1953  m above sea level. A. at the foot of the Lamsenspitze in a spacious saddle with a view of the deeply cut Inn Valley . The stately shelter is located in the eastern Karwendel in Tyrol not far from the Achensee . Because of the panoramic location and the numerous tour options, the hut is an important base for mountaineers on tours lasting several days, but also on many different summit climbs. In addition, the hut is enjoying increasing popularity as an excursion destination for day guests, who can ascend from the Engalm or Gramaialm ( 1263  m above sea level ) and descend again on the same day. The hut is closed in winter, but there is an unlocked, heated room for ski tourers in the adjacent building. Ski tours in this area require solid experience in winter mountaineering even in avalanche-safe conditions.

history

Inauguration ceremony of the first Lamsenjochhütte on June 16 and 17, 1906

In 1903, the Oberland Section concluded a land lease agreement with the Fiecht Benedictine Abbey , so that plans for building a hut could begin. Construction began in 1905; the material had to be carried by girders over steep snow fields to the construction site. First a workers' hut was built and in the following months the work progressed so quickly that the hut could be completed in autumn. The opening ceremony took place on June 16, 1906, and the number of visitors was far higher than originally expected from the start. In the spring of 1908 a huge avalanche destroyed the hut, but it was decided to rebuild it immediately afterwards. An avalanche-proof location was determined, around 20 meters below and 200 m east of the old location. The ruins of the old hut were used to build an emergency hut for the workers, which was also used temporarily by tourists. The new hut could be completed in late autumn 1908; the shell survived the following winter unscathed and so on June 27, 1909, the new Lamsenjochhütte was officially opened. In 1910 a multi-stable was built, and a year later a winter room was set up in the outbuilding.

With the outbreak of the First World War, the rush of visitors slowed down, and although the section tried to maintain limited hut operations with a supervisor in the summer months, the hut had to be closed from 1916 to 1918. Contrary to expectations, the summer of 1919 again brought pleasing visitor numbers. Multiple break-ins resulted in considerable damage, so that massive measures had to be taken to counter the vandalism. In 1923 a property purchase agreement was signed with the Fiecht monastery . In 1928 a spring was discovered not far from the hut, which made the water supply much easier. The years of the Second World War brought many difficulties, in 1944 the Lamsenjochhütte was completely occupied by the Wehrmacht and closed to the public, but it was not damaged.

In the decades that followed, there were repeated changes, renovations and modernizations, a material ropeway was built, sanitary facilities were installed, a second guest room was added, a telephone and power supply were installed, a sewage treatment plant and a combined heat and power plant were built and much more. In 2004 the hut received the environmental seal of approval for Alpine Club huts .
