history
A first hut was built in the years 1875–1876 by the Alpine Society “Wilde Gang” from Vienna , but it was not managed. The hut is named after the German alpine explorer Adolf Schaubach . In 1888 it was bought by the Hamburg section of the DuÖAV and expanded in 1892 and 1896. The hut was completely destroyed during combat operations in World War I. After the end of the war, the Milan section of the CAI received the remains of the Schaubachhütte. Thanks to donations from the citizens of Milan, a new building could be initiated, which was completed in 1926 under the name Rifugio Città di Milano . The mountain station of the Sulden cable car has been located near the hut since 1975.
Together with 24 other shelters expropriated by the state, the Schaubachhütte became the property of the Autonomous Province of Bolzano - South Tyrol in 1999; At the end of 2010, the license for their management by the CAI expired. Since 2015, the state of South Tyrol has been supported in the management of the hut (assignment to tenants, supervision of management, renovation measures) by a joint commission, in which the AVS and CAI are represented in addition to the public sector .
