history

Originally, the area around the hut was used as a mountain mower (meadows for the production of hay), later an alp was created here, the Martinsbergalm . Then the Alm was bought by an entrepreneur who used it as a property for his adjoining hunting area. The Magdeburg section of the German Alpine Club later bought the Alm and the hunting lodge and converted it into a refuge. After the Second World War, the Geltendorf Section took over the hut, and the name Neue Magdeburger Hütte was retained. Since the 1980s, the hut has been expanded and renovated several times; In addition to the extensions, the water supply was also improved. In addition, a fully biological sewage treatment plant and a photovoltaic system were installed to protect the environment . Thanks to its child-friendliness, the hut was able to successfully qualify for the project of the Alpine Club With children in huts and is an integral part of it.
