history

As early as 1904, the SAT had made a plan to build a rifle hut on Monte Stivo. A year later, the construction rights were hastily secured, as they had heard that the Arco section of the DÖAV was also planning to build a hut on the Stivo and that no one wanted to experience a Tuckett case a second time .

In October 1906, the Arco section of the SAT was able to inaugurate the rifugio. It was named in honor of Prospero Marchetti . Marchetti, who came from Arco, founded the Trentino Alpine Association in Madonna di Campiglio in 1872 together with Nepomuceno Bolognini and was its first president. During the First World War the hut served the Austro-Hungarian army as accommodation. War buildings from this period have been preserved in their vicinity. The rifugio survived the war relatively unscathed, so that it was able to reopen as early as 1921. From 1924 to 1954 it was owned by the Rovereto SAT section before it was again taken over by the Arco section. The latter carried out extensive restoration work that had become necessary after the Second World War.

In the following period the Rifugio Stivo was modernized several times, at the end of the 1980s, in 2011 and most recently between 2016 and 2017. It is now owned by the SAT headquarters in Trento .
