history
The first hut was built in 1806 when Joseph von Habsburg climbed the summit. In 1852 a new hut followed, built by Joseph Losertha for Philip Louis de Saint Genois. The roof of the hut was badly damaged in the storms of 1854 and 1855. The hut remained in ruins until the 1920s. After that it fell into disrepair. At the moment only the foundations are visible. In 1905, the Beskydy Association built the Schlesinger House on Babia Góra below the summit at 1616 meters above sea level , which burned down in 1949 and was finally demolished in 1979. The current hut on the mountain, the Markowe Szczawiny hut from 1906, was completely rebuilt in 2007.
