history

In 1943, as part of the Reduit, the Swiss Army built the Cavradi West soldiers' barracks at today's hut location . In 1946 the Piz Terri section took over the civilian operation of the barracks renamed Maighelshütte. In 1968 the Swiss Confederation sold the hut to the Piz Terri section for 50 francs. In the summer of 1969, an 850 meter long water pipe was built and the renovation of the Maighelshütte began. In 1972 an extension was built.
